Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • Whether the proposal would provide adequate living conditions for potential occupants, with regard to privacy

What decided it

The proposal would accord with the Emerson Park Policy Area SPD and local plan policies by respecting the character and appearance of the area through appropriate plot widths, spacing and design, while providing adequate living conditions for future occupants through careful orientation to mitigate privacy concerns.
