Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
- whether the proposal would provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers of the property, with particular regard to outlook, privacy, noise and air quality
- the effect of the development on the conditions experienced by occupiers and users of land and property within the area, with particular regard to noise, activity levels, parking stress and obstruction of the highway, both during the construction phase and during the subsequent use of the property
What decided it
The development would fail to provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers due to poor outlook, privacy and air quality concerns, and would harm the character and appearance of the area through the visually prominent bin store structure.
