Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants
  • 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 the occupants of nearby residential properties
  • The effect of the proposed development on highway safety with regard to parking

What decided it

The failure to provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants due to undersized units and poor outlook, combined with cumulative harm to the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of existing residents, significantly and demonstrably outweighed the benefits of housing delivery.
