Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the appeal site is a suitable location for the development
- the effect of the proposal upon biodiversity interests
- the effect of the proposal upon the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the proposal upon the living conditions of occupiers of nearby properties and users of public realm, with a particular regard to noise and disturbance
- the effect of the proposal upon highway safety and the operation of the highway network
What decided it
The development conflicts with the spatial strategy for employment uses and fails to protect or enhance biodiversity, and there are no material considerations that would justify a decision contrary to the development plan.
