- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and the surrounding area
What decided it
The significant harm to the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area caused by the extension's prominent siting, visual dominance, and incompatible design outweighed the business expansion benefits.
The benefits of enabling the appellant's business to grow and expand were outweighed by the significant harm to the character and appearance of the host property and the surrounding area.
