Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would result in the overdevelopment of the site, and, if so, whether it would affect the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers
What decided it
The proposal would not result in overdevelopment or unneighbourly impacts, and the benefits of housing provision and effective use of brownfield land in a sustainable location, combined with the absence of significant adverse impacts, engaged the presumption in favour of sustainable development under paragraph 11(d) of the Framework where the Council cannot demonstrate a 5-year housing land supply.
The absence of significant adverse impacts combined with the benefits of housing provision, economic investment, the sustainable and accessible location, and effective use of underused brownfield land at appropriate density, pointed towards the grant of planning permission under the tilted balance in paragraph 11(d) of the Framework
