Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character, appearance and visual amenity of the locality

What decided it

The proposed hub, being narrower and slimmer than the two existing kiosks it would replace and partly screened by trees, would respect the character and appearance of the streetscape and not be unduly prominent or obtrusive within the commercial setting of Clarence Street.
