- Whether the site represents a suitable location for the proposed dwellings, having regard to access to services and facilities
What decided it
The moderate environmental and social harm arising from the location in terms of use of natural resources and accessibility of local services significantly and demonstrably outweighs the benefits of housing delivery when assessed against the Framework as a whole.
The modest economic, social and environmental benefits of the development were outweighed by the moderate negative environmental and social effects arising from the location in terms of use of natural resources and accessibility of local services, such that the adverse impacts significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits when assessed against the Framework taken as a whole.
