Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
What decided it
The removal of the distinctive semi-circular grass verge and replacement with hard-landscaped parking would harm the character and appearance of the area, and this harm is not outweighed by the parking benefits.
The benefits of additional off-street parking in response to local parking restrictions and issues were outweighed by the harm to the character and appearance of the surrounding area caused by the loss of a distinctive design feature
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy 14 of the Hull Local Plan 2016 to 2032 (2017)
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 12
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.
