Inspector
Glassar S

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • the living conditions of neighbouring occupants, with particular regard to whether or not the proposal would be dominant and overbearing
  • highway safety and the living conditions of local residents, having regard to the level of on-site parking provision

What decided it

The provision of sufficient evidence demonstrating that 15 car parking spaces would not result in demand for overspill parking that would cause harm to highway safety or living conditions, combined with the acceptable design and scale of the buildings and the maintenance of neighbouring amenity.
