Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the condition restricting permitted development rights is necessary and reasonable having regard to local and national policies relating to proposals affecting the Green Belt

What decided it

The uncertainty regarding the original dwelling curtilage (potentially extending to 77 acres) and the site's sensitivity to change within the Green Belt mean that the condition is necessary and reasonable to prevent disproportionate development that would harm openness.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
Policy P17 of the Solihull Local Plan (2013)
National Planning Policy Framework
Paragraph 54

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.
