Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 26 West Avenue, with particular regard to outlook and access to natural light
What decided it
The proposed development complies with the development plan taken as a whole, and whilst there is a minor conflict with the SPD, this is not of sufficient weight to warrant refusal.
