Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the provision of a contribution towards social tenanted or intermediate housing
  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of future occupiers with particular regard to outlook, outdoor space, cycling and refuse facilities

What decided it

The proposal fails to secure an appropriate affordable housing contribution and would materially harm the living conditions of future occupants through inadequate cycle storage and refuse facilities, harms that substantially outweigh the housing supply benefits.

The benefits of efficient use of the building and contribution to housing supply were substantially outweighed by the considerable and long-lasting harms of failing to secure affordable housing contributions and materially harming the living conditions of future occupants through inadequate cycle storage and refuse facilities.
