Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the development would provide satisfactory living conditions for its future occupiers with respect to their outdoor amenity space and the safety of the residential entrance
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- whether the proposal maximises the housing capacity for the site
What decided it
The unsafe pedestrian access to the residential entrance, with high likelihood of conflict between residents and goods vehicles in the service yard, and the dark and oppressive alternative alley route, failed to provide satisfactory living conditions required by development plan policy.
