Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the development is inappropriate development in the Green Belt, and if so, what other considerations, including relevant policies of the development plan, are material

What decided it

The development preserves the openness of the Green Belt because the additional accommodation is more compactly arranged than the original building with no increase in height or width, resulting in a smaller spatial footprint despite the increased floor area.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
Policy LPD13Policy LPD14Policy 3 of the Greater Nottingham Aligned Core Strategy Part 1
National Planning Policy Framework
Paragraph 154

How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
