Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the condition restricting the use to a temporary period until 22 January 2022 is necessary having regard to the location of the appeal site and the requirement to promote sustainable development and minimise the need to travel
What decided it
The location of the development outside the settlement hierarchy in an isolated village with poor non-car accessibility would result in unsustainable development contrary to Policies CP2 and CP4, and the temporary condition is necessary and justified by the Covid-19 pandemic circumstances.
The economic benefits of the scheme attract moderate weight, but the significant weight given to the conflict with sustainable location policies and the requirement to minimise travel by private car outweighs these benefits, justifying retention of the temporary condition.
