Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the development would harm the living conditions of the occupiers of Nos 53 and 55 Dagmar Avenue with particular regard to privacy within the gardens
  • Whether the proposed development would provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers with respect to ceiling heights and outlook
  • Whether the development would provide suitable arrangements for access, with particular regard to pedestrian access and the collection of household refuse
  • Whether the proposal would make adequate provision for urban greening
  • Whether the proposed development can provide suitable fire risk mitigation

What decided it

The cumulative harm to neighbouring and future occupiers' living conditions, combined with unsatisfactory access arrangements for pedestrians and refuse collection, outweighed the modest benefits of the proposal.
