Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and function of the Notting Hill District Shopping Centre
- the residents parking provision in the area
What decided it
The Unilateral Undertaking preventing occupiers from obtaining parking permits ensured the development would be car-free and would not adversely affect residents parking provision or highway safety.
The absence of a 5-year housing supply was outweighed by the fact that the proposal would not deliver a net increase in housing stock, and the proposal's compliance with development plan policies on retail centres and parking provision.
Plan policies cited: Policy CF3, Policy CT1
