Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal makes adequate provision for any additional need for infrastructure arising from the development
  • The effect on the living conditions of nearby occupiers with particular regard to privacy and whether the development is overbearing
  • The quality of living conditions for future occupiers with particular regard to outlook, privacy, noise and disturbance and car parking

What decided it

The failure to secure signed S106 agreements to mitigate infrastructure impacts, combined in Appeal A with harmful privacy effects on both neighbouring and future occupiers, rendered both appeals contrary to the development plan with no material considerations to justify approval.

Plan policies cited: Policy DP20, Policy DP26, Policy CDNP01, Policy CDNP04.2, Policy CDNP05
