Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the area
What decided it
The size and scale of the proposed development would unacceptably harm the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area, contrary to local plan policies requiring development to make a positive contribution to character and respond appropriately to context including building height, scale and massing.
Plan policies cited: Policy H16 of the City of Derby Local Plan Review, Policy CP3 of the Derby City Council Local Plan - Part 1 Core Strategy (2017), Policy CP4 of the Derby City Council Local Plan - Part 1 Core Strategy (2017)
