Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The main issue is whether the proposed development would provide suitable arrangements for parking and refuse collection.
What decided it
The substantial shortfall in on-site parking provision against DLP standards, likely to intensify existing parking stress and harm the functioning of the highway and the character of the area.
The moderate benefits of housing delivery, heritage reuse and economic/social benefits were outweighed by the substantial harm from inadequate parking provision, so the proposal conflicted with the development plan as a whole and the appeal was dismissed.
