Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring residents and whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers, with regard to noise, disturbance and activity associated with vehicle movements
What decided it
The unacceptable harm to the living conditions of both neighbouring occupiers and future occupiers from noise, disturbance and activity associated with vehicle movements substantially and demonstrably outweighs the moderate housing contribution and limited social and economic benefits, even under the tilted balance.
The significant and long-lasting harm to living conditions was given substantial weight and substantially outweighed the moderate contribution to housing supply (given moderate weight) and limited social and economic benefits (given limited weight), resulting in the conclusion that the development would not represent sustainable development.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy H14
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 11Paragraph 130
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.
