Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The proposal would cause significant harm to the character and appearance of the area through its uncharacteristic elevated design, high-level massing, and jarring visual dominance, contrary to the development plan, and the very limited private benefits do not outweigh this conflict.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy 10 of the Gedling Borough Council Aligned Core Strategy (September 2014)Policy LPD43 of the Local Planning Document (July 2018)
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.
