Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether or not the development would adversely impact the mature trees within and adjoining the appeal site
- The potential impacts on protected species, specifically roosting bats
- Whether or not the development would result in adverse effects on the integrity of European Sites in relation to recreational disturbance
- Whether or not the development would result in adverse effects upon the integrity of European Sites in relation to nutrient enrichment
- Whether or not the development would be at risk, or increase risk elsewhere, of surface water flooding
- Whether or not the development makes adequate provision for community and infrastructure contributions
What decided it
The cumulative failure to provide adequate information and legal agreements to address impacts on trees, protected species, European sites (recreational disturbance and nutrient enrichment), surface water drainage and infrastructure contributions meant the proposal could not be approved.
