Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect that the proposed development would have on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • the living conditions of the future occupiers regarding private outdoor amenity space

What decided it

The harm to character and appearance and to future occupiers' living conditions significantly and demonstrably outweighs the benefits of housing delivery in an area with a shortfall in five-year housing land supply.

the harm identified in the main issues (character and appearance, and living conditions regarding private outdoor amenity space) significantly and demonstrably outweighed the benefits (new home, construction jobs, support for local services) when assessed against the policies in the Framework taken as a whole

Plan policies cited: Policy D10A of the Eastbourne Core Strategy Local Plan, Policy UHT1 of the Eastbourne Borough Plan, Policy UHT4 of the Eastbourne Borough Plan, Policy B2 of the Eastbourne Core Strategy Local Plan
