Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the loss of the existing premises on the provision of local community facilities in the area
- whether the proposal would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers having regard to internal space
What decided it
The proposal fails on two independent grounds: inadequate market testing of the building's potential for community use contrary to Policy CSU2, and substandard residential accommodation below the NDSS contrary to Policy GC4.
Framework references: 84, 93, 130
Plan policies cited: Policy CSU2 of the Broadland Development Management Development Plan Document 2015, Policy EMP1 of the Salhouse Neighbourhood Plan 2017, Policy GC4 of the Broadland DMDPD, Policy H2 of the Salhouse Neighbourhood Plan
