Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on parking provision and highway safety
  • the effect of the proposal on ecology

What decided it

The absence of adequate parking provision and failure to submit an ecological assessment to establish the absence of harm to protected species rendered the proposal non-compliant with development plan policies and unable to proceed.

Plan policies cited: Policy CSP12, Policy CSP17, Policy DP5, Policy DP7, Policy DP19
