Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would be in a suitable location for new housing having regard to local and national policy
- Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Odiham Conservation Area
- The effect of the proposed development on flood risk having regard to surface water drainage
What decided it
The proposal's conflict with the development plan's settlement boundary, local gap and open space allocation policies, which the benefits of the scheme were not sufficient to outweigh.
the moderate weight benefits of housing delivery, affordable housing, economic, social and biodiversity net gain benefits did not outweigh the conflict with the development plan taken as a whole
