Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the mix and balance of housing, with particular regard to the supply of family-sized dwellings in the area
- Living conditions of the occupiers of surrounding dwellings in respect of noise and disturbance, waste generation and the availability of car parking
What decided it
The proposal would result in the loss of a family dwelling suitable for occupation, conflicting with the development plan's clear policy direction to increase family housing stock in the North Manchester Regeneration Area, and the appellant failed to demonstrate no reasonable demand for the property as a family dwelling.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy SP1Policy H3Policy H11Policy DM1
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.
