Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area, including the Green Belt
  • whether or not the proposal would promote sustainable modes of travel and highway safety
  • whether or not the proposal would support the borough's objective for promoting employment growth and development

What decided it

The temporary three-year duration of the permission, combined with national policy support for economic growth and the site's role as a 'meanwhile' use pending permanent redevelopment, justified allowing the appeal despite the harm to character and appearance and conflict with design policies.
