Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring residents with particular regard to noise and disturbance including parking
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring residents with particular regard to privacy and outlook
What decided it
The unacceptable noise and disturbance to neighbouring residents from student activity and amenity areas, and the unacceptable loss of outlook to No.28 Regent Street, which would harm living conditions contrary to the development plan.
