Summary of Reasons for Decision

The proposal has been considered with regard to the policies of the Development Plan (East of England Plan May 2008, Hertfordshire County Structure Plan, Minerals Local Plan, Waste Local Plan and East Herts Local Plan Second Review April 2007), and in particular SD1, SD2, HSG2, HSG3, HSG4, HSG6, TR1, TR2, TR3, TR7, TR14, ENV1, ENV2, ENV3, ENV11, ENV21, LRC3, SA1, SA2, SA4 and IMP1. The balance of the considerations having regard to those policies and the grant of outline planning permission in November 2008 (ref. 3/07/1569/OP) is that permission should be granted.
