Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposal would make adequate provision for vehicle parking to avoid parking congestion in the area
The effect of the proposals on highway safety
The effect of the proposals on waste and recycling collections locally

What decided it

The inadequate provision of vehicle parking due to physical constraints at the property, combined with insufficient evidence of on-street parking availability, conflicted with Policy PSP16 and could not be overcome by the absence of highway safety harm.

The absence of harmful effects on highway safety and waste and recycling collections did not overcome the conflict with the Development Plan arising from inadequate parking provision.
