Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the disputed condition is reasonable and necessary with particular regard to the openness of the Green Belt
- Whether the condition is precise
What decided it
The removal of Class E permitted development rights only was justified by the need to prevent re-provision of the demolished garage which would undermine the very special circumstances, but Classes A and B restrictions lacked clear justification given the limited scope for further extensions and the national application of permitted development rights.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy GB1 of the South Bucks District Local PlanPolicy GB10 of the South Bucks District Local Plan
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 55Paragraph 57
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.
