Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of future occupants, with particular regard to the size of the proposed units, the outlook therefrom and the provision of private and communal garden space
What decided it
The insufficient detail and contradictions in the outline scheme meant the Inspector could not be sure the building would address key issues demonstrating that the proposed development could be achieved without causing harm to the living conditions of future occupiers.
The moderate weight given to the net increase of five residential units and small economic benefits during construction was outweighed by the substantial weight attributed to serious reservations about whether the scheme could deliver appropriate living conditions for future occupiers without unintended harmful consequences.
