Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the details submitted in respect of the surface water drainage scheme for the site meet the requirements of the relevant conditions with regard to flooding
  • Whether the submitted details would satisfy the requirement for details to be submitted and agreed for condition No 5 and, in doing so, ensure that the proposal would sit comfortably within the character and appearance of the area and would make a positive contribution to biodiversity

What decided it

The limited scale of the development, its location in Flood Zone 1 at low risk of surface water flooding, and the approval of the drainage strategy under Building Regulations provided sufficient assurance that the submitted details would not result in flooding elsewhere and would satisfy the conditions.
