Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The consequences for the surrounding area arising from car parking provision
  • The occupants of the property from potential flooding

What decided it

The absence of a site-specific flood risk assessment for development in Flood Zone 2 or 3 converting a garage to a habitable bedroom, which fails to comply with national policy and means the likelihood of harm due to flooding cannot be ruled out.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
Policy KS12 of the Christchurch and East Dorset Local Plan Part 1 – Core Strategy

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.
