Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would provide satisfactory living conditions for future occupiers with regard to outlook
What decided it
The proposed studio apartment would have very limited outlook due to its single aspect, depth, layout and proximity to a tall fence, providing inadequate living conditions contrary to development plan policy.
The modest economic and social benefits of additional housing and reduced anti-social behaviour did not outweigh the harm identified in relation to inadequate outlook and living conditions.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy 3.12Policy 4.2
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
