Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the site is suitable for residential development, having regard to its location, the proposed land use and the amount of development, with specific reference to access to services and facilities
What decided it
The proposal's conflict with the development plan's spatial strategy and sustainable transport policies, combined with the site's poor accessibility to services and facilities, significantly and demonstrably outweighs the minor housing and economic benefits of a single dwelling.
The minor benefits of housing supply, efficient use of the site, and construction/occupation benefits were significantly and demonstrably outweighed by the moderate weight given to conflict with sustainable transport and growth management policies and the minor weight given to conflict with the housing strategy, resulting in dismissal despite the engaged tilted balance.
