Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
- Whether the development would provide an acceptable quality of accommodation
- The effect of the development on the living conditions of neighbours
- Whether the development secures a Biodiversity Net Gain
- Whether the development would be likely to have a significant effect on the integrity of the Dorset Heathlands Special Protection Area, Dorset Heaths Special Area of Conservation, Dorset Heathlands Ramsar sites and Poole Harbour SAC
What decided it
The Council's inability to demonstrate a five-year housing land supply triggered the tilted balance under paragraph 11(d) of the Framework, which meant the limited harm to character and appearance was outweighed by the benefit of delivering an additional dwelling.
The limited harm to character and appearance was outweighed by the benefits of delivering an additional dwelling in the context of the Council's housing land supply shortfall, applying the presumption in favour of sustainable development under paragraph 11(d) of the Framework
