Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the proposal on European sites

What decided it

The inability to demonstrate water neutrality to exclude adverse effects on the integrity of the Arun Valley European sites, combined with harm to rural character and appearance, meant the proposal conflicted with the development plan with no material considerations indicating a contrary decision.
