Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on surface water drainage and flood risk
- The effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring dwellings with particular regard to overlooking
What decided it
The Inspector's finding that no significant increase in surface water flooding had been demonstrated as a result of the development, combined with acceptable living conditions impacts, meant the development could be granted permission subject to conditions addressing fencing modifications and drainage maintenance.
