Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether or not the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt

What decided it

The proposal satisfies Framework paragraph 155 criteria (a), (b) and (c) as non-major housing development in the Green Belt, rendering it not inappropriate development and therefore in accordance with the development plan.

The benefits of housing delivery on previously developed grey belt land in a sustainable location, addressing unmet housing need, outweighed any concerns about neighbouring amenity, which were adequately mitigated by conditions and the fallback scheme.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
Policy GB1 of the Walsall Site Allocation Document (2019)saved Policy GP2 of Walsall's Unitary Development Plan
National Planning Policy Framework
Paragraph 155

How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
