Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the Council's decision to refuse to grant a Lawful Development Certificate was well-founded, turning on whether the proposed vehicular driveway and access would benefit from permitted development rights under Article 3(1), Class F of Part 1 and Class B of Part 2 of Schedule 2 of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015

What decided it

The formation of the proposed access would create an obstruction to visibility at a sharp bend in the highway that would be likely to cause danger to highway users, contrary to Article 3(6) of the GPDO, and therefore cannot benefit from permitted development rights.

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.
