Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the stock and quality of employment floorspace in the Borough
- the effect of the proposal on the provision of housing in the Borough
- whether or not an affordable housing contribution is necessary to make the proposed development acceptable in planning terms
What decided it
The proposal would not result in a net loss of employment or housing floorspace, and the submitted viability assessment demonstrated that an affordable housing contribution was unviable.
