Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the siting of the proposed installation would prejudice the effective and efficient implementation of housing allocation HS22 of the Kirklees Local Plan Allocations and Designations 2019

What decided it

The proposed mast would occupy only a very small part of the 14.11 hectare housing allocation and would not materially affect the ability of the allocation to deliver new housing, particularly given the absence of firm plans for the allocation to come forward in the near future.

Framework references: 5

Plan policies cited: Policy LP3 of the Local Plan Strategy and Policies 2019, housing allocation HS22 of the Kirklees Local Plan Allocations and Designations 2019
