Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the conditions are necessary to protect the living conditions of the adjoining neighbours at Virgates, with particular regard to overlooking and loss of privacy

What decided it

The fixed louvered screen is not necessary to protect the living conditions of the neighbours at Virgates because views from the balcony are limited by angle and distance, and similar views are already available from other vantage points.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
Policy S1Policy WE8
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.
