Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether internal living conditions for occupiers of the proposed holiday let apartment would be satisfactory with regard to floorspace, light and ventilation
- The effect on the integrity of the Thanet Coast and Sandwich Bay Special Protection Area
What decided it
The deficient mechanism for securing mitigation of effects on the Special Protection Area integrity, arising from an incorrect reference in the planning obligation deed, was an overriding consideration that precluded the proposal.
