Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The implications of the change of use for the living conditions of the occupiers of the appeal flats and nearby dwellings
- The effect of the change of use on the supply of family homes
What decided it
The alleged flats fail to meet minimum space standards and would result in unacceptably poor living conditions for occupiers and unacceptable noise disturbance to neighbouring residents, conflicting with London Plan Policies D5, D6 and GG4 and local plan policies requiring good quality homes.
