Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would provide satisfactory living conditions for future occupiers
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of occupiers of existing neighbouring properties, in particular number 31 Clarence Road
What decided it
The proposed bedroom would lack satisfactory outlook for future occupiers, relying only on skylights, which fails to accord with Policy L1 and paragraph 130 of the NPPF.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy L1 of the Dudley Borough Development Strategy-2017
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 130
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.
