LAND AT LING HAW HILL / BROW TOP, , CONONLEY ROAD, , GLUSBURN, NORTH YORKSHIRE, BD20 8JW

Authority: Craven District Council *
Appeal type: minor · Planning Appeal
Procedure: Written Representations
Development: residential · Other minor developments
Inspector: Dillon C

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.

Plan policies cited: Policy ENV3 of the Craven Local Plan

- Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
