Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the appeal scheme constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt, having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any relevant development plan policies
- If found to be inappropriate development, whether the harm, by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, are clearly outweighed by other considerations, so as to amount to the very special circumstances necessary to justify the appeal development
What decided it
The appeal building reduces openness of the Green Belt and conflicts with the purposes of Green Belt inclusion, and the other considerations advanced do not clearly outweigh this harm.
What the Inspector cited
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 149
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
