Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the location of the proposals would be acceptable having regard to the locational strategy for development within the area
- the effect of the proposals on the character and appearance of the area including their effect on the Howardian Hills National Landscape
- the effect of the proposals on the living conditions of future occupiers with regard to noise
- whether the proposals would prejudice the continued operation of adjacent businesses
What decided it
The extant fallback prior-approval scheme for 10 residential units, which would deliver more dwellings with uncontrolled noise impacts on future occupiers, outweighed the identified conflict with the development plan.
the conflict with the development plan as a whole (Policies SP1, SP2 and SP20) was outweighed by the substantial weight given to the fallback prior approval scheme, which would result in more residential units with no comparable noise mitigation controls, so the appeals were allowed despite the conflict
