Summary

Outline scheme for nine flats replacing a workshop close to Poole town centre, next to the Heckford Park Conservation Area. Dismissed. Although dated 17 August 2026, the letter applies the December 2024 Framework throughout. The unsecured habitats mitigation (a UU that self-terminated on refusal) and low-level harm to the conservation area's setting were each "strong reasons" under footnote 7 disengaging the tilted balance; cramped overdevelopment and overlooking added plan conflict.

The location finding

TR3: pass. within 500 m walk of town centre, rail and bus stations; "highly sustainable location" (DL 6)
