Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on highway and pedestrian safety, with particular regard to on-street vehicle parking
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- Whether the proposed development would be capable of providing satisfactory refuse storage and collection arrangements
What decided it
The proposal's failure to provide the minimum number of off-street parking spaces required by the development plan would likely harm highway and pedestrian safety, and this harm was not outweighed by the modest benefits of providing two additional dwellings.
