Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • its effect on the character and appearance of the area
  • highway safety

What decided it

The proposed extensions would be of appropriate scale and design in keeping with the character of the existing house and street, would not breach the 45 degree splay test for overshadowing, and would provide adequate parking without compromising highway safety.

Plan policies cited: CS11, CS12, CS8, Appendices 3 and 7 of the Dacorum Borough Local Plan
