Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers of the scheme, with particular reference to outlook and private amenity space
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with particular reference to outlook
- whether the proposal would adequately minimise greenhouse gas emissions
- the effect of the proposal with respect to sustainable transport
What decided it
The combined planning harm from inadequate living conditions for future occupiers, unacceptable impact on neighbouring amenity, failure to minimise greenhouse gas emissions, and inadequate sustainable transport provision could not be outweighed by the modest benefits of adding one dwelling to housing supply.
