Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would affect open space and, if so, the effects that would be wrought by this
- Whether the house sizes and types proposed are appropriate
- Whether appropriate living conditions would be provided for the future occupiers of the proposed development with particular reference to privacy
- The effects of the proposed development upon the living conditions of the occupiers of 157 Auckland Hill, with particular regard to their privacy
- The parking and access arrangements
What decided it
The cumulative effect of multiple development plan policy conflicts—loss of open space, failure to provide appropriate housing mix, unacceptable living conditions for future occupiers due to privacy infringements, and unmitigated parking pressures—means the development conflicts with the development plan taken as a whole, and this conflict is not outweighed by the housing supply benefit or other material considerations.
