Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of amending and/or removing the disputed conditions, in the context of an appeal made under Section 73 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990
What decided it
The Section 73 appeal powers do not extend to amending the description of development, and removing the demolition condition would fundamentally alter the original planning proposal, which is beyond the scope of Section 73 and would require a fresh planning application.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- DM2 Design Quality for New DevelopmentDM12 Landscape, Seascape, Biodiversity and Geodiversity
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
