Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether or not the scope of condition No 3 is necessary to secure an acceptable appearance of development and meets the nationally prescribed tests for planning conditions
- whether or not condition No 26 is necessary to ensure that the infrastructure requirements of the development permitted are secured and meets the nationally prescribed tests for planning conditions
What decided it
Condition No 26 was unnecessary because the required planning obligations for affordable housing and public open space were already secured through a binding section 106 legal agreement, and the Council failed to specify what additional infrastructure provision the condition required.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy ENV3 of the Craven Local Plan
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
