Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the site and the surrounding area
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupants of 59 and 61 Gadsby Street, with regard to privacy, outlook and light
- Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants of the development, with regard to the provision of internal living space
What decided it
The existing garage's negative visual impact on the streetscene and the area's lack of uniform character meant the proposed conversion would not cause detrimental harm to character and appearance, while conditions could adequately protect neighbouring amenity and ensure acceptable living conditions for the future occupant.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy BE3 of the Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Plan 2019
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 130
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
