Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effects of the proposal on the character of the Green Wedge
- whether the access would be well-designed having regard to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers at 66 and 70 Mount Leven Road
- the effects of the proposal on the Habitats Sites
What decided it
The harm to neighbours' living conditions and the unresolved likely significant effects on the integrity of the Habitats Sites meant the scheme conflicted with the development plan, and this conflict was not outweighed by the public benefits.
the great weight attributable to the public benefits (housing delivery, affordable housing, open space and economic benefits) did not amount to a consideration of such materiality as to outweigh the conflict with the development plan
