Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would be acceptable having regard to local and national planning policies on the location of new housing
What decided it
The appeal site is located in open countryside outside the defined settlement boundary and does not meet any of the exceptions in policy 3 of the Cornwall Local Plan for housing development, and the location is not sustainably accessible to local services and facilities.
The economic and housing benefits of the proposal, which were small, were insufficient to outweigh the significant harm identified through conflict with the development plan's spatial strategy and sustainability requirements.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy 2 of the Cornwall Local Plan Strategic Policies 2010-2030Policy 3 of the Cornwall Local Plan Strategic Policies 2010-2030Policy 7 of the Cornwall Local Plan Strategic Policies 2010-2030Policy 21 of the Cornwall Local Plan Strategic Policies 2010-2030Draft policy SD1 of the Perranzabuloe Neighbourhood Development Plan 2018-2030
