Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would provide a suitable housing mix
- The effect on the character and appearance of the area
- Whether the proposal would provide a suitable standard of accommodation in respect of accessible housing
- Whether the proposal would suitably address car parking and highway safety
- Whether adequate provision would be made for cycle parking
What decided it
The proposal conflicted with the development plan on multiple material grounds—housing mix, character and appearance, accessible housing, and car parking and highway safety—with no material considerations indicating the decision should be made otherwise than in accordance with the development plan.
