Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Does the submitted information allow the proper determination of the application
- If there is enough information provided, is the proposed change of use in accordance with the policies of the development plan
What decided it
The application did not contain sufficient information to describe the development in accordance with the Development Management Procedure Order 2015, specifically lacking clarity on the proposed C1 use, detailed floor plans, and a planning statement addressing the necessary planning considerations.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Saved Policy S29 of the Cherwell Local Plan
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.
