Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would lead to harm arising to the living conditions of the occupants of Baldwin Street with particular regard to overlooking and a loss of privacy, sense of overbearing and overshadowing
- Whether as a consequence of non-adopted internal roads, the proposal would lead to an adverse effect on future occupants of the development
What decided it
The substantial and adverse impact of harm arising from the development's inability to safeguard the living conditions of neighbouring occupants significantly and demonstrably outweighs the modest benefits of adding 22 housing units to the local supply.
the modest benefits of housing delivery (22 units contributing to a shortfall in housing supply, construction employment, local spend and financial contributions) were significantly and demonstrably outweighed by the substantial harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupants on Baldwin Street
