Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Ranmoor Conservation Area
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties with regard to privacy
- The effect of the proposed development on highway safety
What decided it
The proposal would cause less than substantial harm to the conservation area with no public benefits to outweigh it, and would also cause unacceptable overlooking and highway safety harm.
The less than substantial harm to the conservation area, combined with harm to living conditions and highway safety, was not outweighed by any public benefits, as the private benefit to the appellant of improved garage parking carried no weight.
