Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether future occupiers of the proposed dwelling would have satisfactory living conditions having regard to internal floorspace and outdoor amenity space
What decided it
The proposed dwelling would not provide satisfactory living conditions for future occupiers due to inadequate internal floorspace and outdoor amenity space, contrary to Policy CSP1 and the SPD.
The modest benefits arising from the provision of an additional dwelling and improvements to the external appearance of the building would not outweigh the harm to future occupiers.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy CSP1R16R18R19
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.
