Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would provide an additional waste and recycling facility, or additional capacity, and, if so, would such a provision comply with relevant development plan policies
  • Whether the site is an appropriate location for the proposed development, having regard to it being within a designated Strategic Industrial Location
  • Whether the development should make financial contributions towards carbon offsetting, travel plan management, and in respect of biodiversity protection and enhancement and, if so, whether such a contribution can be secured

What decided it

The proposal would establish an additional waste management facility in an area not considered suitable for such development, conflicting with the development plan taken as a whole, with no material considerations indicating determination other than in accordance with the plan.
