Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on parking provision and highway safety
- whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers with specific regard to amenity space and the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with specific regard to privacy
- whether the proposed development would make acceptable provision for accessible facilities
What decided it
The proposed development would displace parking onto the street in a dense residential area with poor public transport accessibility, thereby prejudicing highway safety and the free flow of traffic contrary to the development plan, with no material considerations of sufficient weight to outweigh this harm.
The neutral findings on living conditions and accessibility could not weigh against the significant harm to parking provision and highway safety, leading to conflict with the development plan with no material considerations to indicate a decision other than in accordance with it.
