Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the site is a suitable location for the proposed development having regard to the housing policies of the development plan and whether the proposals make efficient use of land and provide housing for a local need
What decided it
The proposed development conflicts with the adopted development plan by locating outside the housing development boundary for Hudswell and failing to provide housing with a local occupancy restriction, and the moderate weight attributable to the emerging Local Plan is insufficient to outweigh this conflict.
