Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the Land is an appropriate location for the development
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the development on the living conditions of neighbouring properties with particular regard to visual impact, noise, dust and air quality
- whether the development makes appropriate provision for electric vehicle charging points
- the effect of the development on highway safety
- the effect of the development on biodiversity
- whether there is a need for a worker to live on the Land close to their place of work
What decided it
The LPA's agreement to support the mixed use in Area B for concrete preparation and vehicle/plant storage, combined with the absence of material considerations indicating otherwise, led to the appeal succeeding in part; conversely, the unacceptable planning harm from waste processing and residential use in Area A, without LPA support or material considerations to the contrary, resulted in the appeal failing for that part.
