Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the appeal scheme accords with relevant development plan policies in respect of the balance of the community, living conditions of occupants and neighbours, and car parking provision
  • Whether the appeal scheme would have likely significant effects on the integrity of the Solent Special Protection Areas and whether adequate mitigation measures are in place

What decided it

The completion of a Section 106 Legal Agreement securing mitigation contributions under the Solent Recreation Mitigation Strategy and Interim Nutrient-Neutral Mitigation Strategy ensured the development would not adversely affect the integrity of the Solent Special Protection Areas, making the scheme acceptable in planning terms.

Framework references: 56

Plan policies cited: PCS17, PCS20, PCS23, PCS13
