Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to outdoor space provision, and privacy
  • Whether appropriate bicycle, waste and recycling storage would be provided
  • The effect of the proposal on the potential for local flooding and the flood risk of the development

What decided it

The proposal fails to meet three independent policy requirements: acceptable living conditions (outdoor space and privacy), appropriate storage facilities, and flood risk safety, with no material considerations to override the development plan.
