Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any relevant development plan policies
- the effect on the openness of the Green Belt
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property
What decided it
The proposal qualified as an exception to the 30% floor space threshold in MLP Policy GC12 because the host property lies within a group of houses and the extension would not be prominent in the street scene or from neighbouring land.
