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

Framework references: 12

Plan policies cited: Policy 14 of the Hull Local Plan 2016 to 2032 (2017)
