Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would provide suitable living conditions for future occupiers
What decided it
The proposal would fail to provide suitable living conditions for future occupiers by not meeting minimum internal space standards and providing a kitchen without natural daylight, which constitutes material harm that significantly and demonstrably outweighs the limited benefits of housing delivery.
The identified harm to living conditions of future occupiers significantly and demonstrably outweighed the limited benefits of delivering one additional home and minor economic benefits when considered against development plan policies and the Framework
