Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the provision of sports facilities in the area
  • the effect of the proposed development on legally protected species and whether it would result in a net gain for biodiversity

What decided it

The failure of the scheme to provide biodiversity net gain and the resulting conflict with Policy TP8 of the development plan, which could not be outweighed by the limited housing and economic benefits.

The adverse impacts arising from the development's failure to provide biodiversity net gain significantly and demonstrably outweighed the limited weight attributed to the benefits of housing delivery and brownfield reuse when assessed against the policies in the Framework taken as a whole.
