Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the site is in a suitable location for the proposed development having regard to the spatial strategy of the development plan
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
What decided it
The proposal conflicts with the development plan spatial strategy and would materially harm the character and appearance of the area, and these major shortcomings significantly outweigh the modest benefits of one dwelling.
The modest benefits of housing supply and economic benefits were significantly outweighed by the major shortcomings of harm to character and appearance and unsuitability of location contrary to the development plan.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy 22 of the Rushcliffe Local Plan Part 2: Land and Planning Policies (October 2019)Policy 10 of the Rushcliffe Local Plan Part 1: Core Strategy (December 2014)Policy 1 of the Rushcliffe Local Plan Part 2
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.
