What decided it
The combination of significant harm to character and appearance and unacceptable harm to highway safety from inadequate parking provision outweighed the limited benefits of providing a single additional dwelling.
The limited benefits of providing a single new dwelling to assist housing targets were significantly and demonstrably outweighed by the adverse impacts on character and appearance and highway safety when assessed against the policies in the Framework as a whole
Framework references: 11, 111
Plan policies cited: Policy 26 of the Havering Local Plan 2016-2031, Policy D6 of the London Plan, HLP Policies 23 and 24, LP Policy T4
