Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of occupiers of existing neighbouring properties, including demands for on-street parking
- the effect of the proposal on the character of the area
What decided it
The site's location close to public transport, local services, and the provision of cycle storage would attract non-car users, and no substantive evidence demonstrated that additional parking demand could not be accommodated within the existing on-street parking provision.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy LPD 32 of the Local Planning Document: Part 2 Local Plan (2018)
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.
