Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers with particular regard to internal accommodation standards and provision of external amenity space
  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with particular regard to noise and disturbance

What decided it

The Inspector was satisfied that the modest increase from 7 to 8 occupants would not materially worsen living conditions for future occupiers or neighbours, particularly given that the same kitchen and amenity provision had been found acceptable in the previous approval for 7 occupants.
