Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would make adequate provision for off street parking
What decided it
The proposed development would make inadequate provision for off-street parking contrary to Policy TC9 and would add to on-street parking pressure in an area already experiencing significant congestion.
The adverse impact of inadequate parking provision significantly and demonstrably outweighed the limited benefit of providing one additional housing unit, such that the presumption in favour of sustainable development did not apply.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy TC9
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 11
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
