Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties, and whether acceptable living conditions would be provided for future occupiers, with particular regard to privacy
  • whether adequate waste storage would be provided

What decided it

The inadequate separation distance between the proposed dwelling and the neighbouring flat at No 130 would result in harmful overlooking and unacceptable living conditions that could not be adequately mitigated, combined with failure to provide required bulky waste storage.
