Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the change of use on the Borough's supply of family housing
- whether the development provides satisfactory living conditions for its occupiers, with particular regard to space, noise and disturbance
- the effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties, with particular regard to noise and disturbance
What decided it
The change of use resulted in the loss of a family-sized home in a residential location away from town centres, materially harming the Borough's supply of family housing contrary to local and national policy.
