Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development upon the living conditions of the occupiers of 20 Prince George Street with regard to outlook
- Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants with regard to amenity space
What decided it
The modest size of the proposed single-bedroom dwelling and its accessible location with access to nearby parks and countryside justified the absence of external amenity space, and the marginal increase in building height would not harmfully affect neighbouring outlook.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy DC1 of the Staffordshire Moorlands Local Plan (2020)
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.
