Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of future occupants of the proposed unit, with regards to outlook, daylight and sunlight.

What decided it

The proposed development would harm the living conditions of future occupants with regards to outlook, daylight and sunlight, conflicting with Policies DSM1 and DMH4 of the Development Management Policies Document.

The benefits of effective site use and creation of a family-sized unit in an accessible location were outweighed by the harm to future occupants' living conditions in terms of outlook, daylight and sunlight.
