Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the amended layout would constitute high quality design in accordance with Policy DES1 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011-2035
What decided it
The proposed layout amendments would fail to contribute to the clear hierarchy of streets sought by Policy DES1 and would harm the overall design quality of the development, appearing visually incongruous and unnecessary.
