Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of future occupiers with particular respect to outlook, privacy and access to external amenity space
- Whether the proposal would provide access to suitable and adequate parking for future occupiers and its effect on the free flow of local traffic
What decided it
The proposal's compliance with local design guidance through careful layout, window placement and screening measures to manage privacy and outlook, combined with the unilateral undertaking preventing resident parking permits in a highly accessible town centre location, justified allowing the appeal despite some deviation from numerical standards for outdoor space.
