Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the proposed development upon highway safety
- the effect of the proposed development upon the living conditions of the occupiers of adjacent properties with regard to sunlight and daylight
- the effect of the proposed development upon the supply of Class C2 housing
What decided it
The significant and demonstrable outweighing of the adverse impacts on character and appearance, highway safety and neighbouring amenity by the moderate benefits of housing supply and minor environmental measures.
The adverse impacts of harm to character and appearance, highway safety and living conditions of neighbours significantly and demonstrably outweighed the moderate benefits of housing delivery and minor environmental benefits, despite the Council's inability to demonstrate a five-year housing supply.
