Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the supply of family housing in the borough
  • whether the occupants of the proposed development would have reasonable access to transport, facilities and services
  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of nearby residents, with particular reference to noise and disturbance
  • whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants, with particular regard to internal space

What decided it

The proposal conflicts with the development plan on three grounds: loss of family housing supply, inadequate access to transport and services, and failure to provide acceptable internal living conditions for future occupants, with no material considerations of sufficient weight to outweigh these conflicts.
