Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether in combination with other approved development, the veranda constitutes good design or causes harm to the character and appearance of the area
- The effect of the veranda in conjunction with the approved development on the living conditions of the occupiers of the host property in respect of outlook and light and the occupiers of the neighbouring property in respect of outlook and privacy
What decided it
The veranda causes unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the area and material harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through outlook and privacy impacts, which cannot be adequately mitigated and outweighs the health benefits to the disabled occupant.
