Authority: Bournemouth Christchurch and Poole
Appeal type: Planning
Procedure: Written
Development: residential
Postcode: BH12 2LU

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

whether condition three is necessary and reasonable to protect the living conditions of occupiers of the approved development, with particular regard to internal and external space provision
whether condition three is necessary and reasonable to limit the effects on the character of the area and the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring dwellings with particular regard to noise and disturbance

What decided it

The limited communal and external amenity spaces, combined with the risk of materially increased noise and disturbance from higher occupancy, made Condition 3 necessary and reasonable to protect both occupier living conditions and the character of the residential area.

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

Heritage. Listed buildings by grade and distance, conservation areas, scheduled monuments, registered parks and gardens, heritage at risk.
Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.

Then the development plan position, the housing land supply as an Inspector last accepted it, and every appeal decided around the site with its letter.

Every English appeal since 2016, with the letter behind it wherever the Inspectorate published one. Searched by meaning as well as by words, with the key case law counted live across the letters.

Casework that chases the deadlines. Applications, appeals and conditions with their statutory dates.

The judgement stays yours. The tool gathers the material and dates it.
