Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the front/side extension on the living conditions as regards light for the occupiers of No. 34 Hollies Avenue
What decided it
On-site observation demonstrated that the proposed extension, with its short pitched roof sloping away, would allow the affected bedroom window to receive substantial daylight and at least some sunlight, with only a limited reduction from existing levels that would not be unacceptable.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy CS21 of the Woking Core Strategy 2012
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 130
