Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the appeal site is an appropriate location for the development with reference to its vulnerability to flooding
- the effects of the development on the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of nearby residents with regard to noise, disturbance and parking provision
What decided it
The absence of a flood risk assessment and flood mitigation measures for a development introducing sleeping accommodation at ground floor level in a high-probability flood zone constituted an overriding concern that outweighed the acceptable effects on character and living conditions.
