Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether it is necessary to limit the period of the permission to 3 years in the interests of the residential amenities of the occupiers of nearby properties
What decided it
Since the planning permission was granted on the basis that the trellis does not cause unreasonable harm to neighbouring residential amenities, the time-limiting condition imposed to protect those amenities is unnecessary and fails the necessity test for planning conditions.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- CS09A1
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 56
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.
