Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the location of the development is appropriate having regard to the impacts and risks of flooding, including the application of the sequential test
The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
The effect of the development on the living conditions of existing occupiers of neighbouring properties with particular regard to outlook, privacy and light
The effect of the development on the integrity of the Essex Coast European Protected Sites

What decided it

The proposal failed the sequential test for flood risk and would cause material harm to character and appearance and neighbouring living conditions, with no material considerations of sufficient weight to overcome these conflicts with the development plan.

Plan policies cited: Policy PPL1 of the Tendring District Local Plan 2013-2033 and Beyond Section 2, Policy SP7 of the Tendring District Local Plan Section 1, Policy SPL3 of the Tendring District Local Plan Section 2, Policy LP3 of the Tendring District Local Plan Section 1

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

Heritage. Listed buildings by grade and distance, conservation areas, scheduled monuments, registered parks and gardens, heritage at risk.
Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.

Then the development plan position, the housing land supply as an Inspector last accepted it, and every appeal decided around the site with its letter.

Every English appeal since 2016, with the letter behind it wherever the Inspectorate published one. Searched by meaning as well as by words, with the key case law counted live across the letters.

Casework that chases the deadlines. Applications, appeals and conditions with their statutory dates.

The judgement stays yours. The tool gathers the material and dates it.
