Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- Living conditions for occupiers of the neighbouring properties on Chelsham Road and Newark Road, with particular regard to whether or not it would be overbearing
- Highway safety, with particular regard to on-street car parking
What decided it
The reinstatement of two on-street parking spaces combined with the site's moderate public transport accessibility level rendered the proposal acceptable in terms of highway safety and parking impact, allowing the appeal to proceed on the basis that all three main issues were satisfactorily addressed.
