Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the provision of public open space

What decided it

The appeal site has not been shown to be surplus to requirements and performs a valuable recreational function with community support lacking, resulting in substantial harm that outweighs the considerable cumulative benefits of the proposal.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
Policy 27 of the Doncaster Local Plan 2015-2035
National Planning Policy Framework
Paragraph 104Paragraph 85

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.
