Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Appeal A: (i) the effect of the development on the balance of family sized housing within the Borough; (ii) the effect of the development upon the living conditions of the occupiers of the appeal property with particular regard to internal floor space; (iii) the effect of the development upon the living conditions of residential neighbouring occupiers with particular regard to noise and disturbance; (iv) the effect of the development upon contributing to reducing the causes and effects of climate change
- Appeal B: (i) the effect of the development upon character and appearance of the host building and the surrounding area; (ii) the effect of the development upon the living conditions of occupiers of the appeal property with particular regard to loss of light, sense of enclosure and outlook
What decided it
