Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Effects on designated habitats sites
- Whether the site could accommodate acceptable drainage
- Whether the development provides acceptable living conditions for its occupants, with particular regard to noise disturbance
What decided it
An adverse effect on the integrity of the Wealden Heaths Phase II Special Protection Area cannot be ruled out, and the development conflicts with Policy CP22 of the JCS and the Habitats Regulations, with no material considerations of sufficient weight to justify a decision other than in accordance with the development plan.
The substantial harm to the integrity of the Special Protection Area outweighed the benefits of providing an additional gypsy and traveller pitch and compliance with other policy requirements.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy CP22 of the JCSPolicy CP25 of the JCSPolicy CP29 of the JCS
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 11Paragraph 25
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.
