Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed extension with regard to parking provision

What decided it

The parking standards should not be applied prescriptively to exclude all other factors, the existing dwelling was already below the standard, the scheme would not substantively increase parking demand, and the appellant's medical needs and equality implications weighed in favour of permission.

The benefits of providing accessible internal accommodation for the appellant's medical condition and the absence of material parking or highway safety harm outweighed any concern about the parking standard not being fully met
