Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether or not the development provides for an appropriate range of homes, having specific regard to occupancy levels and local housing need
What decided it
The conversion of a 3-bedroomed flat with outdoor space into smaller units contradicts Policy H7 of the Camden Local Plan, which seeks to minimise the loss of such properties to meet local housing need for family housing, and the appellant provided insufficient evidence to justify this loss.
