What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Principle 7.7 of the Windsor and Maidenhead Borough Wide Design GuidePolicy QP3 of the Windsor and Maidenhead Borough Local Plan 2022Policy DES01 of the Windsor Neighbourhood Plan 2021
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.
