Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the site is in a sustainable location for the proposed new dwelling
- if there are objections to the location of the development, whether there are any other material considerations that outweigh such concerns
What decided it
The inability to prevent simultaneous implementation of both the proposed dwelling and the extant prior approval scheme through a planning obligation meant the proposal could result in three dwellings in an unsustainable location, undermining the material consideration that favoured the single dwelling over the fallback position.
Plan policies cited: SP12, SP13, LP41, SP21
