Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on employment generating floorspace

What decided it

The failure to demonstrate through adequate marketing that there is no reasonable prospect of the retained employment floorspace being used for its permitted or an alternative economic use, contrary to Core Policy 10 of the South Bucks Core Strategy.

The benefits of housing delivery and economic benefits during construction were significantly and demonstrably outweighed by the significant harm from the loss of employment generating floorspace.

Framework references: 11

Plan policies cited: Core Policy 10 of the South Bucks Core Strategy
