Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the streetscene
- the quality of the living conditions for future occupiers
- the adequacy of car parking and cycle store, bins storage, etc
What decided it
The cumulative effect of harm to the neighbouring property's outlook, deficient living conditions for future occupiers, and inadequate parking and cycle storage arrangements outweighed the modest contribution to housing supply.
The presumption in favour of sustainable development arising from the borough's housing delivery shortfall was outweighed by the identified harms to neighbouring amenity, future occupier living conditions, and site layout deficiencies.
