Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether conditions 11, 12 and 13 are necessary and reasonable to ensure that the development does not harm air quality and the existing amenities of neighbouring residential properties by adding to on-street car parking stress in the area

What decided it

The Inspector's site observations of available parking spaces in nearby streets, combined with the Council's failure to provide firm evidence of parking stress levels, demonstrated that the conditions were not necessary to prevent unacceptable harm to neighbouring amenities or highway safety.
