Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would secure an appropriate density of development
  • The effect of the proposed site access and additional traffic on highway safety and the local highway network
  • The effect of the proposed development on air quality
  • Whether sufficient information has been provided regarding the effect of the proposed development on ecology, biodiversity and trees

What decided it

The proposal accords with the development plan taken as a whole, the Council has a five-year housing land supply, and there are no material considerations that would outweigh the presumption in favour of the development.
