Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether or not condition 2 remains enforceable, reasonable and necessary, insofar as it relates to Wisteria Rise, having regard to local and national policies which seek to restrict housing development in the open countryside.

What decided it

The existence of the CLEUD, which meant the disputed occupancy condition was not currently enforceable and had no real prospect of becoming enforceable again, outweighed the identified conflict with LP Policy SP21.

the material consideration of the condition's unenforceability (arising from the CLEUD fallback position) outweighed the harm from the identified conflict with LP Policy SP21

Framework references: 56

Plan policies cited: Policy SP21
