Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would provide a suitable location for housing, with particular regard to the Council's spatial strategy
- Whether the proposal would provide satisfactory living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to noise, pollution and disturbance
- Whether the proposal would place unreasonable restrictions on existing businesses and facilities adjacent
What decided it
The failure to demonstrate adequate mitigation for noise, pollution and disturbance from the adjacent minerals operations, combined with the risk of placing unreasonable restrictions on the existing business, rendered the proposal unacceptable despite its compliance with spatial strategy policies.
