Authority: North Norfolk District Council
Appeal type: minor · Planning Appeal
Procedure: Written Representations
Development: residential · Minor Dwellings
Inspector: Simpson L

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the future occupiers of the proposed dwellings would have an adequate standard of living accommodation, with particular regard to the effect of noise, disturbance and pollution
The effect of the proposed development on the Broads Special Area of Conservation, with particular regard to issues pertaining to nutrient neutrality

What decided it

The proposal would directly conflict with NPPF Paragraph 174a by failing to protect the Broads SAC from likely significant adverse effects due to nutrient loading, as no adequate and certain mitigation measures were demonstrated.

Framework references: 130, 174

Plan policies cited: Core Strategy Policy EN4, Core Strategy Policy EN13

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

Heritage. Listed buildings by grade and distance, conservation areas, scheduled monuments, registered parks and gardens, heritage at risk.
Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.

Then the development plan position, the housing land supply as an Inspector last accepted it, and every appeal decided around the site with its letter.
