Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether appropriate living conditions would be provided for the future occupiers of the proposed development
  • whether a safe standard of development would be provided
  • the effect of the development upon biodiversity
  • whether the needs of the development are such that a legal agreement would be required
  • the effect of the development upon highway safety

What decided it

The proposed development would not provide appropriate living conditions for future occupiers due to noise from vehicle manoeuvring and would fail to provide a safe standard of development, compounded by inadequate biodiversity net gain and an improperly executed legal agreement.
