Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the appeal site would be a suitable location for the proposal having regard to the development strategy for the area
What decided it
The proposal would undermine the Council's development strategy by locating residential development outside the defined development limits of Pocklington in the Countryside, contrary to Policies S3 and S4, and the benefits of delivering one self/custom build dwelling did not provide sufficiently compelling reason to depart from the up-to-date development plan.
the limited benefits of delivering one self/custom build dwelling and contribution to housing supply did not outweigh the conflict with the development plan and the development strategy for the area
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy S3Policy S4Policy H1
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 11Paragraph 72Paragraph 80
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.
