Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development upon the living conditions of the occupiers of Nos 70 and 78 Terrace Road and the future occupiers of the new dwellings, with particular reference to privacy
- whether the development would provide satisfactory living conditions for the future occupiers of the new dwellings at the rear of the site with particular reference to outlook and the site entrance
- whether the development would provide satisfactory living conditions for the future occupiers of the new dwellings at the front of the site, with particular reference to internal floorspace and external space provision
- whether the development would provide a suitable mix of dwellings and its effect upon the availability of family housing in the Borough
What decided it
The significant harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with reference to privacy, and the harmful living conditions to future occupiers in respect of privacy, outlook, internal and external space provision, significantly outweighed the benefits of the development.
The moderate benefits of economic contribution during construction, housing supply increase, and more efficient site use were significantly outweighed by the significant harm to living conditions of neighbouring and future occupiers and conflicts with family housing policies.
