Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would be granted planning permission by Article 3(1), Schedule 2, Part 1, Class A of the GPDO
What decided it
The condition attached to the original planning permission lacked the precision required to preclude permitted development rights and did not apply to future legislation, therefore Article 3(4) of the GPDO did not prohibit the operation of Schedule 2, Part 1, Class A.
What the Inspector cited
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 56
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
