Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether ground stabilisation works would be lawful under the terms of outline planning permission P16/S0970/O as normal enabling works ancillary to the approved development
What decided it
The scale and nature of the ground stabilisation works, combined with their planning consequences (particularly traffic generation and drainage implications) that differ from those anticipated when permission was granted, demonstrate they constitute a separate activity of substance requiring their own planning permission rather than being ancillary enabling works.
The main issues and the deciding factor are read from the published letter by Town Planner Pro; the letter itself is the record. Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0. Research, not advice.
