Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on parking provision and the convenience of other road users in the vicinity
  • the appearance of the streetscene

What decided it

The existing garage was sub-standard and not a usable parking space under the Council's own standards, so its removal would not materially alter parking availability or harm other road users.
