Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of nearby properties with particular regard to outlook, access to light and privacy
- Whether the proposal would provide appropriate living conditions for future occupiers of the proposed development, with particular regard to outlook, access to light and ventilation
- Whether or not a legal agreement is required to prevent future occupants from acquiring parking permits to secure car free development
- Whether or not there would be adequate cycle parking and refuse storage facilities to serve the proposed development
What decided it
The proposal would fail to provide appropriate living conditions for future occupiers and would have a harmful effect on the living conditions of nearby occupiers, with these adverse impacts significantly and demonstrably outweighing the small benefits of the development.
The small socio-economic benefits of housing delivery, employment generation and efficient use of previously developed land were significantly and demonstrably outweighed by the harmful effects on the living conditions of existing and future occupiers and the conflict with sustainable transport objectives.
