Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 149, 151 and 153 Harlesden Road, with particular regard to privacy and noise
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- whether the development would achieve the highest standards of fire safety
What decided it
The material loss of privacy for neighbouring occupiers due to overlooking from upper floor windows, combined with failure to demonstrate compliance with fire safety standards, outweighed other considerations.
