Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupants of the neighbouring dwelling, Richmond Lodge, with particular regard to privacy
What decided it
The privacy screening shown on the approved plans, combined with the fact that overlooking views would not materially change from the existing Juliette window and would actually reduce views over the main patio area, means the proposal would not unacceptably harm the living conditions of the neighbouring occupants.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy GEN2Policy H8
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 130
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
