Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the Framework and any relevant development plan policies
- Whether occupants of the proposed development would have reasonable access to shops and services
- The effect of the proposal on trees
- The effect of the proposal on the natural beauty of the Chilterns Area of Outstanding National Beauty (AONB)
- The effect of the proposal on biodiversity
- Whether the proposal would lead to increased risk of flooding
- Whether any harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, would be clearly outweighed by other considerations, so as to amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposal
What decided it
The proposal constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt that would harm openness, and the other considerations put forward do not clearly outweigh this harm and the other areas of actual and potential harm identified, so very special circumstances do not exist.
