Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the first floor side extension on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The set back, set down from roof line, and hipped roof design of the first-floor extension would minimise its appearance in the street scene and retain the rhythm of breaks between dwellings, ensuring the proposal would not cause harm to character and appearance.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy L7 of the Trafford Local Plan Core Strategy January 2012
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.
