Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the sustainability of the local community, with particular regard to housing and population mix in the area
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with particular regard to anti-social behaviour, noise, nuisance and crime
- Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers of the host property
What decided it
The proposed development failed to satisfy either Exception Test under Policy H6, particularly because the property was not approaching the last C3 dwelling on the street and evidence did not demonstrate it was effectively unsaleable as a C3 use, combined with the failure to provide sufficient detail regarding living conditions for future occupiers.
Plan policies cited: Policy H6 of the Core Strategy (as amended by the Core Strategy Selective Review 2019), Policy P10 of the Core Strategy, Saved Policy GP5 of the Leeds Unitary Development Plan (Review 2006) Volume 1: Written Statement
