Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would amount to inappropriate development within the Green Belt
- Whether there would be any other harm to the Green Belt
- Whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness and any other harm would be clearly outweighed by other considerations, so as to amount to the very special circumstances necessary to justify the development
What decided it
The garage would not constitute disproportionate additions to the original building as defined by reference to 1 July 1948, and therefore does not represent inappropriate development in the Green Belt.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy GB1(c)
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.
