Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal constitutes permitted development under Schedule 2, Part 20, Class A of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended)
- if permitted development, whether prior approval should be granted having regard to the effect on the amenity of residents and the transport and highways impact of the development
What decided it
The proposed development does not constitute permitted development under Schedule 2, Part 20, Class A of the GPDO because the additional storeys would be constructed above both the three and four storey sections of the building and above the lower three storey part, contrary to the requirements that development be above the topmost residential storey and on the principal part of the building.
