Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the integrity of habitats sites
- whether the development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants in relation to noise and outlook
What decided it
The development would have a likely adverse effect on the integrity of the habitats sites in the absence of properly secured mitigation, contrary to Policy ME2 and the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017.
The social and economic benefits of 5 additional housing units in an accessible location, including contribution to the Council's housing shortfall, were clearly outweighed by the adverse environmental effects on the integrity of habitats sites.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy ME2 of the Christchurch and East Dorset Local Plan Part 1 – Core Strategy 2014saved Policy H12 of the Christchurch Local Plan 2001Policy HE2 of the Core Strategy
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 11Paragraph 182
