Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of removing conditions 6, 7 and 8 on public health and the living conditions of existing residents
- the effect of removing condition 12 on highway safety
- the effect of removing conditions 13 and 15 on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The removal of conditions 6, 7 and 8 was justified because the small-scale development was unlikely to generate significant pollution issues and such matters could be satisfactorily addressed through regulatory means outside planning, whilst conditions 12, 13 and 15 were retained in amended form as necessary to protect highway safety and the sensitive rural character and landscape setting of the area.
