Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
  • the living conditions of existing occupiers with regard to outlook and privacy and proposed residents with regard to the provision of amenity space
  • the integrity of the SAC

What decided it

The provision of financial contributions secured through a planning obligation to mitigate effects on the Epping Forest SAC, combined with conditions requiring electric vehicle charging and broadband, ensured the development would not adversely affect the integrity of the designated site and was therefore acceptable.
