Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- The appropriate mix of dwellings
- The delivery of biodiversity net gain and landscaping
- The living conditions of the occupiers of the proposed dwellings, with particular regard to outlook and in addition to Plot 1, with particular regard to outlook and privacy
- The living conditions of the occupiers of the neighbouring properties at 17 and 19 Priory Close, with particular regard to privacy and 33 Templar Gardens, with particular regard to outlook and light
What decided it
The proposed development would conflict with the development plan on multiple grounds—character and appearance, housing mix, biodiversity net gain, and living conditions of both proposed and neighbouring occupiers—with no material considerations of sufficient weight to outweigh these harms.
