Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of its future occupiers having regard to the adequate provision of outdoor amenity space and matters of outlook, privacy, and safety
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers having regard to matters of outlook and privacy
- the effect of the proposed development on the provision of on-street parking in the area
- whether the proposed development would provide an appropriate amount of affordable housing
What decided it
The cumulative material harm to character and appearance, living conditions of both future and neighbouring occupiers, parking provision, and affordable housing, with no material considerations of sufficient weight to outweigh these harms.
The limited benefit of affordable housing contribution (if secured) was insufficient to outweigh the substantial harm identified across character, living conditions, and parking.
