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 pedestrian and highway safety

What decided it

The unacceptable impact of the proposed split-level dwelling's orientation and design, coupled with the lack of spacing between it and the host property, on the character and appearance of the Radburn-designed residential area outweighed the limited housing and economic benefits.
