Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of nearby residents, particularly those at 113a Green Lanes, with particular regard to outlook
- whether mitigation to offset any harm arising from the proposal triggers the need for a planning obligation
What decided it
The proposal failed to secure a planning obligation to provide affordable housing contributions, carbon offset contributions, and car-free development restrictions as required by the development plan policies, despite the Inspector finding the living conditions impacts to be acceptable.
