Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- Whether the proposal would provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers with particular regard to light, outlook and provision of internal accommodation
- Whether a legal agreement to prevent occupiers from applying for car parking permits is necessary
What decided it
The cumulative harm to character and appearance, inadequate living conditions for future occupiers, and absence of a binding legal agreement to secure car-free housing status meant the proposal conflicted with the development plan with no material considerations to outweigh that conflict.
