Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would provide suitable living conditions for future occupiers of the proposed dwelling with regards to outlook and light
- whether the proposal would make adequate provision for secure, covered, convenient, and accessible cycle parking
- whether the proposal would make suitable provision for refuse and recycling storage and collection
What decided it
The unacceptably poor outlook for future occupiers of the proposed dwelling, which would constitute significant harm to living conditions that outweighed the limited housing supply benefits of a single unit.
the significant harm to living conditions from poor outlook outweighed the limited contribution of one additional dwelling to the Council's housing supply shortfall, such that adverse impacts significantly and demonstrably outweighed benefits
