Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 112-116 Amyand Park Road with particular reference to overlooking and loss of privacy
  • The effect of the proposed development on ecology
  • Whether or not the proposed development would make adequate provision for affordable housing

What decided it

The proposed development would result in unacceptable levels of overlooking and loss of privacy to the rear garden spaces of neighbouring properties, conflicting with Policies LP8 and LP39 of the Local Plan, and this harm was not outweighed by the limited benefits of the scheme.

Plan policies cited: Policy LP8, Policy LP39, Policy LP15, Policy LP36
