Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposal would provide suitable living conditions for future occupants with particular reference to light and outdoor amenity space
  • the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area, with particular regard to protected trees

What decided it

The proposal would fail to provide satisfactory living conditions for future occupants due to significant overshadowing and poor light levels caused by the protected trees, and would likely result in future pressure to carry out harmful works to the trees.

Plan policies cited: Policy SD1, Policy SD2, Policy SE5, Policy NBE4 of the Alsager Neighbourhood Plan, Supplementary Guidance Note 2 Provision of Open Space in new Residential Developments, Supplementary Planning Document 14: Trees and Development
