Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the development would increase opportunities for crime and anti-social behaviour in the local area

What decided it

The ATM's location adjacent to a blind corner with inadequate natural surveillance increases opportunities for crime and anti-social behaviour in an area with higher than average crime rates, contrary to local plan policies requiring natural surveillance and design that eliminates concealment points.
