Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the site is a suitable location for a new dwelling, having particular regard to national and local planning policies for housing and the likely effect upon the character and appearance of the area, including the Tamar Valley National Landscape
- The likely effect upon nature conservation interests within the Plymouth Sound and Estuaries Special Area of Conservation and the Tamar Estuaries Complex Special Protection Area
What decided it
The absence of a planning obligation to secure affordable housing and to mitigate recreational impacts on protected nature conservation areas meant the proposal could not comply with policies TTV27 and DEV26.
Plan policies cited: LP policy TTV26, LP policy TTV27, LP policy DEV24, LP policy DEV25, LP policy DEV20, LP policy DEV29, LP policy DEV8, LP policy DEV26, LP policy DEV32, NP policy E1, NP policy H5, NP policy E2
