Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the condition is reasonable and necessary to protect the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of the future occupiers of the proposal, with respect to private amenity space
- Whether the condition is reasonable and necessary in the interests of highway safety, with specific regard to parking provision for the existing occupiers of No 57 and the future occupiers of the proposal
What decided it
The disputed condition was not reasonable or necessary because the proposal would provide adequate private amenity space proportionate to the small dwelling size and sufficient parking for both the existing and proposed occupiers.
