Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the supply of employment land and premises to meet current and future demand
- whether the proposal would include appropriate provision for the parking of vehicles to encourage sustainable travel choices and enable access by disabled persons
- whether the development would provide appropriate living conditions for future occupiers, having regard to outlook and private amenity space
What decided it
The proposal would result in an unacceptable loss of employment land and premises, conflicting with the development plan taken as a whole, with no material considerations of sufficient weight to indicate otherwise.
