Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The degree to which the proposal would meet the minimum standards for vehicle crossovers and create safe conditions for pedestrians and other highway users

What decided it

The proposed parking space fails to meet the minimum width standard of 6.5m (achieving only 6.2m), would obstruct access to the building's entrance for the second household, and would remove valuable kerbside parking relied upon by a disabled occupant, creating unacceptable highway safety and access implications.
