Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed extension on living conditions for occupiers of the neighbouring property at No 134 Brandon Street, with particular regard to outlook from that rear garden
  • The effect of the proposed extension on living conditions for occupiers of the appeal property, with particular regard to the provision of private amenity space

What decided it

The proposed extension would cause unacceptable harm to living conditions for occupiers of the neighbouring property at No 134 Brandon Street by becoming a dominant feature that would harmfully diminish outlook and reduce daylight and sunlight to their rear garden.

Plan policies cited: Saved Policy PS10 of the 2006 Leicester Local Plan, Policy CS03 of the 2014 Leicester Core Strategy
