Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the principle of the proposal

- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of 274 Chase Side
- whether future occupants of the proposal would be likely to experience acceptable living conditions
- whether the proposal is accessible, including appropriate car and cycle parking provision and the effect of the proposal on highway safety and the free flow of traffic on Chase Side
What decided it
The proposal provides a mix of housing types including priority three-bedroom family homes without creating an over-concentration of conversions, and would not materially harm character, appearance, neighbour amenity or highway safety when assessed against development plan policies and the Framework.
