Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the supply of family housing in the borough
- the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring dwellings, with regard to noise and disturbance
What decided it
The proposal conflicts with the development plan on two independent grounds—loss of family housing contrary to Policy H4 and unacceptable noise and disturbance to neighbours—with no material considerations of sufficient weight to warrant approval.
