Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on highway and pedestrian safety in Heron Place

What decided it

The property has sufficient capacity for off-street parking and on-street parking in the cul-de-sac is not regular or hazardous, therefore the proposal does not significantly harm highway safety as required by Policy SQ8.

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.
