Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
whether this is an appropriate location for the proposal, having regard to Local Plan policies

What decided it

The proposal would harm the character and appearance of the area and represents an inappropriate location having regard to Local Plan policies, with no material considerations sufficient to outweigh the development plan conflict.

Plan policies cited: Policy SP7 of the North Essex Authorities' Shared Strategic Section 1 Plan 2021, Policy SP3 of the North Essex Authorities' Shared Strategic Section 1 Plan 2021, Policy SPL3 of the Tendring District Local Plan 2013-2033 and Beyond Section 2 2022, Policy LP4 of the Tendring District Local Plan 2013-2033 and Beyond Section 2 2022, Policy PPL3 of the Tendring District Local Plan 2013-2033 and Beyond Section 2 2022, Policy LP8(f) of the Tendring District Local Plan 2013-2033 and Beyond Section 2 2022, Policy LP7 of the Tendring District Local Plan 2013-2033 and Beyond Section 2 2022

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

Heritage. Listed buildings by grade and distance, conservation areas, scheduled monuments, registered parks and gardens, heritage at risk.
Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.

Then the development plan position, the housing land supply as an Inspector last accepted it, and every appeal decided around the site with its letter.

Every English appeal since 2016, with the letter behind it wherever the Inspectorate published one. Searched by meaning as well as by words, with the key case law counted live across the letters.

Casework that chases the deadlines. Applications, appeals and conditions with their statutory dates.

The judgement stays yours. The tool gathers the material and dates it.
