Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would be inappropriate development for the purposes of the National Planning Policy Framework and development plan policy
- the effect of the proposed development on the openness of MOL
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- if the development is inappropriate, whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, is clearly outweighed by other considerations, so as to amount to the very special circumstances necessary to justify the development
What decided it
The benefits of the proposal in boosting housing supply and promoting effective use of land clearly outweighed the harm to MOL by reason of inappropriateness and limited damage to openness, amounting to very special circumstances.
The harm to MOL by reason of inappropriateness and limited damage to openness was clearly outweighed by the benefits of housing supply and effective use of land, justifying the development.
