Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would contribute to a mix of housing types and sizes that would assist in the creation of a sustainable, inclusive and mixed community
What decided it
The proposed apartments would not constitute family housing as defined by policy HO1 of the LAPP and would discourage development of the approved family houses, thereby failing to contribute to a sustainable, inclusive and mixed community contrary to the development plan.
The benefits of additional housing supply and efficient use of previously developed land were insufficient to outweigh the harm caused by non-compliance with the development plan's housing mix policies and the undermining of efforts to address the local imbalance of HMOs and student housing.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy 8 of the ACSPolicy A of the ACSPolicy HO1 of the LAPPPolicy HO2 of the LAPP
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.
