Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Effect of the development on amenity, including whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Surbiton Town Centre Conservation Area
Public safety with particular regard to the safe movement of pedestrians
Whether the proposed development has been suitably designed to minimise energy consumption
Effect of the development on the risk of crime

What decided it

The proposal would not preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Surbiton Town Centre Conservation Area, and the public benefits would not outweigh this less than substantial harm.

Framework references: 202, 152, 154

Plan policies cited: CS8, DM10, DM12, HC1, DM8, D3, D8, SI2

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

Heritage. Listed buildings by grade and distance, conservation areas, scheduled monuments, registered parks and gardens, heritage at risk.
Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.

Then the development plan position, the housing land supply as an Inspector last accepted it, and every appeal decided around the site with its letter.

Every English appeal since 2016, with the letter behind it wherever the Inspectorate published one. Searched by meaning as well as by words, with the key case law counted live across the letters.

Casework that chases the deadlines. Applications, appeals and conditions with their statutory dates.

The judgement stays yours. The tool gathers the material and dates it.
