Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
- Whether the location of the site would provide the occupants with reasonable access to services and facilities
- Whether the means of surface and foul water drainage of the site would be sufficient
- The effect of the development on protected species, with specific reference to Great Crested Newts
- Whether the proposal would provide a biodiversity net gain
What decided it
The Council's acceptance of a personal Gypsy/Traveller need combined with the Inspector's finding that all outstanding policy criteria (character, access, drainage, ecology, biodiversity net gain) could be satisfactorily met or secured by planning conditions.
Plan policies cited: Policy D11, Policy S1, Policy S2, Policy S3, Policy S6, Policy T1, Policy BE2, Policy NE4, Policy I4, Policy I5, Policy NE1
