Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework 2021 and any relevant development plan policies
- the effect on the openness of the Green Belt
- whether any harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, would be clearly outweighed by other considerations, so as to amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposal
What decided it
The proposal would cause substantial harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness through reduction in openness, and the other considerations advanced by the appellant did not clearly outweigh this harm to justify very special circumstances.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy 21 of the Rushcliffe Local Plan Part 2: Land and Planning Policies
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 11Paragraph 130Paragraph 137Paragraph 147Paragraph 148Paragraph 149
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
