What decided it
The unacceptable harm to character and appearance and highway safety, when weighed against the moderate benefits of housing supply in a location without a five-year supply, resulted in the adverse impacts significantly and demonstrably outweighing the benefits.
The moderate benefits of housing supply and small economic and social benefits were significantly and demonstrably outweighed by the substantial harm to character and appearance and the unacceptable impact on highway safety.
