Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development upon the housing stock of the area, with particular regard to family sized dwellings
  • whether the proposal would provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers with respect to the quality of the internal space
  • whether the proposal would provide appropriate facilities for cycle parking
  • the effect of the development on highway safety, with particular regard to parking

What decided it

The development fails to accord with spatial housing policies protecting family-sized dwellings in Restricted Dwelling Conversion wards, provides inadequate living conditions for future occupiers, and would harm highway safety through unmitigated parking impacts.

Plan policies cited: DM Policy DM6, DM Policy DM5, Policy CS13, CS Policy CS7, CS Policy CS15, DM Policy DM16
