Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The impact of the proposal upon the living conditions of nearby occupiers, having particular regard to outlook, light levels and noise
What decided it
The modest height, flat-roofed form, and appropriate separation of the extension from neighbouring properties, combined with a noise condition for the air conditioning units, ensures the development would not unacceptably harm the living conditions of nearby residents.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy CS7 of the Bracknell Forest Borough Core Strategy (2008)Policy EN20 of the Bracknell Forest Borough Local Plan (2002)
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 56
