Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would provide a suitable location for housing in principle, based on the spatial strategy in the Tendring District Local Plan
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect on the integrity of Essex Coastal Habitats Sites
- whether the proposal makes adequate provision for any additional need for recreational public open space arising from the development
What decided it
The provision of a Unilateral Undertaking securing RAMS contributions and public open space contributions, combined with the site's suitable location adjacent to the settlement boundary with access to services, resolved all main issues and allowed the appeal.
