Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect on highway and pedestrian safety
  • The effect on landscaping, a tree and biodiversity
  • Whether adequate refuse facilities could be provided
  • Whether a legal agreement is necessary to secure restriction on parking permits as a consequence of demands created by the proposal

What decided it

The cumulative harm from poor character and appearance, highway safety concerns, inadequate landscaping mitigation, unresolved refuse storage, and the absence of a legal agreement restricting parking permits meant the disbenefits outweighed any benefits.
