Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the loss of this designated employment land would be contrary to development plan policy
  • whether the scheme would be likely to have an adverse effect on drainage and flooding
  • whether the site can accommodate the necessary open space associated with a scheme of this scale
  • whether infrastructure impacts are suitably addressed

What decided it

The Council failed to demonstrate that there was not a substantial over-supply of employment land, so the proposal satisfied Local Plan Policy E2 and did not conflict with the development plan as a whole.

Plan policies cited: Policy 6 (Winslow Neighbourhood Plan), Policy E2, Policy I4, Policy I1, Policy I2, Policy BE3, Policy S5, Policy H1, Policy I3
