Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area with particular regard to the external facing materials employed
What decided it
The variety of materials already present in the character area, including modern replacements, provided insufficient justification for refusing render when the Council had already approved identical proposals with brick gables, making the distinction unduly onerous.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy EP3(e) of The South Bucks District Local Plan (March 1999)
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.
