Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposal would accord with the Council's development strategy for the loss of employment sites
  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the proposal on flood risk
  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the neighbouring occupiers of No 245 Tring Road with regard to privacy

What decided it

The loss of an employment site without relocation or marketing evidence, combined with unacceptable harm to character and appearance and adverse flood risk, conflicted with the development plan as a whole.

The modest housing supply contribution and limited economic benefits were outweighed by the loss of employment land, harm to character and appearance, and flood risk concerns.
