Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether or not the proposals would prejudice the regeneration prospects for the local area
  • The effect of the proposed buildings on the character and appearance of the local area
  • The effect on the living conditions of neighbouring residents by virtue of outlook, overlooking and loss of privacy
  • The effect on the living conditions of future residents of the developments by virtue of outlook, external spacing levels and noise levels
  • Whether or not the proposals would lead to flood risk
  • Whether or not the proposals would lead to a pedestrian and highway safety danger with regards to refuse servicing
  • Whether or not the proposals would lead to a highway safety concern with regards to construction logistics

What decided it

The proposals would prejudice the future success of other developments within this strategic regeneration location and fail to achieve acceptable design solutions and living conditions, creating conflict with the development plan with no material considerations to outweigh this.
