Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the location or siting of the building would make it impractical or undesirable for it to change from agricultural use to a use falling within Class C3, having regard to the living conditions of future occupiers with particular regard to the amount of private amenity space proposed; noise, disturbance and odour; vehicular access and car parking
- the transport and highways impacts of the development
What decided it
The proposal for a single one-bedroom dwelling would not generate sufficient additional vehicular movements to cause demonstrable harm to highway safety, and the location and siting would not make conversion impractical or undesirable for future occupiers' living conditions.
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.
