Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the occupiers of 265 and 269 Rivington Crescent in respect of privacy and, if harm would be caused, whether mitigation could be secured without harm being caused to the occupiers of the aforementioned properties in respect of outlook
What decided it
The proposal would cause unacceptable harm to neighbouring occupiers through overlooking that cannot be satisfactorily mitigated, as any privacy screening would instead cause significant harm to outlook.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- DES 7HE2
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
