Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether prior approval should be granted under Schedule 2, Part 1, Class AA of the GPDO, having regard to the effects of the development on the external appearance of the dwellinghouse
  • Whether prior approval should be granted under Schedule 2, Part 1, Class AA of the GPDO, having regard to the effects of the development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 268 Sydney Road, having particular regard to their gardens

What decided it

The harmful effects of the proposed additional storey on the external appearance of the dwellinghouse and character of the area, resulting from disruption to the stepped nature of the terrace, outweighed the absence of harm to neighbouring living conditions.
