Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether or not the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants of Unit 2 with regard to noise and disturbance
- Whether or not the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants of Units 1 and 2 and existing occupants of No.40 with regard to privacy
- The effect of the proposed development on highway safety with regard to parking
What decided it
The proposal would create poor and unacceptable living conditions for future occupants of Unit 2 due to noise and disturbance from parking, unacceptable privacy impacts, and insufficient on-site parking that would exacerbate on-street parking pressures and compromise highway safety.
