Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would constitute permitted development as defined under Schedule 2, Part 3, Class Q of the GPDO
- if the proposal is found to constitute permitted development, whether it would accord with the conditions of Schedule 2, Part 3, Class Q of the GPDO with respect to the transport and highways impacts of the development
What decided it
The building and land within its curtilage was not used solely for agricultural use as part of an established agricultural unit, failing the fundamental requirement for Class Q permitted development.
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.
