Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposals on the character and appearance of the area
  • whether the proposals would provide adequate parking and turning space for vehicles, and adequate bin and bike storage

What decided it

Appeal A provides one parking space per dwelling meeting standards with demonstrated car tracking, whereas Appeal B provides no parking and would likely generate uncontrolled on-street parking in breach of Policy 82, tipping the balance decisively against Appeal B.
