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.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy 6 (Winslow Neighbourhood Plan)Policy E2Policy I4Policy I1Policy I2Policy BE3Policy S5Policy H1Policy I3
