Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the condition is reasonable and necessary in respect of whether the development is inappropriate development in the Green Belt
- whether the condition is reasonable and necessary in respect of the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of occupiers of neighbouring properties with regards to noise and disturbance
- if the development is inappropriate development, whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, is clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to amount to the very special circumstances necessary to justify the development
What decided it
The substantial weight attributed to harm to the Green Belt from inappropriate development and harm to neighbouring living conditions from noise and disturbance was not clearly outweighed by other considerations.
The harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness and harm to neighbouring living conditions from noise and disturbance, both carrying substantial weight, were not clearly outweighed by the private benefits of additional storage and workshop space, which carried little weight.
