Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the planning obligation no longer serves a useful purpose and so should be discharged
What decided it
The planning obligation continues to serve a useful purpose in protecting open space and the character and appearance of the settlement, and the change in development plan context does not alter or remove this original purpose.
