Reason for Inquiry
Appeal by Waddeton Park UK Ltd against Mid Devon District Council’s non-determination of planning application 21/01576/MOUT - Outline for the extension to the existing business park for up to 3.9ha of employment land and up to 150 dwellings with associated infrastructure and access with all other matters reserved.
The application was considered by Mid Devon District Council Planning Committee held on 18 January 2023 where it was resolved that planning permission be refused as recommended in the report. A public inquiry was held on 12-15th September 2023 and the Inspector issued his decision on 20th October 2023.
Following a High Court challenge to the Inspector’s decision on this appeal dated 20th October the Court has ordered that the appeal be re-determined following a local inquiry.
