Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the Council's decision to refuse to grant an LDC was well-founded with particular regard to whether on the date of the LDC application the proposed development would have been permitted development given the limitations and conditions of Class A of Part 2 of Schedule 2 of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended) (GPDO)
What decided it
The internal access road is not a highway for GPDO purposes because members of the public cannot use it as of right, and the proposed gates would not be adjacent to any highway.
The main issues and the deciding factor are read from the published letter by Town Planner Pro; the letter itself is the record. Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0. Research, not advice.
