Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would provide adequate living conditions for neighbouring occupants
  • Whether the proposal would provide adequate living conditions for future occupants with particular reference to communal amenity space and children's play provision

What decided it

Appeal B's provision of communal amenity space and children's play provision in accordance with Policies DM10 and D6, whereas Appeal A's complete absence of such facilities was unacceptably harmful to future occupants.

Framework references: 57

Plan policies cited: Policy DM10, Policy DM10.4, Policy DM10.5, Policy D6, Policy D12(A)
