Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the use would be unacceptably reliant on the private motor vehicle for travel to and from the site and access to key services and facilities
- The effects of vehicle movements and parking on the residential amenity of the area
What decided it
The unacceptable reliance on private motor vehicle travel due to the site's location on the outer edge of the settlement with limited sustainable transport options, conflicting with Policy SS1 c) and outweighing the substantial weight given to providing specialist children's care accommodation.
Plan policies cited: Policy SS1 c), Policy SS1 f), Policy SC1 a), Policy SC1 d), Policy LC3
