Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The proposal would result in a lesser visual impact overall compared to the extant position of uses across the site, causing no harm to the surrounding landscape, scenic value and openness of the Heritage Coast, and would reduce the dominance of the site to the benefit of the area.

Framework references: 191, 57

Plan policies cited: Policy EC1, Policy S4, Policy ENV2(B), Policy ENV1, Policy EC2, Policy A2

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.

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.
