Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of nearby properties, with particular regard to outlook and privacy
- Whether or not there would be adequate car parking, cycle parking and refuse storage facilities to serve the proposed development
- Whether or not the proposed development would provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers of the proposed dwelling, with particular regard to interior space
- Whether or not the proposed development would be at an unacceptable risk of flooding or would increase flood risk elsewhere, with particular regard to the site being in a surface water flood risk area
What decided it
The cumulative effect of harm to character and appearance, neighbouring amenity, inadequate internal space, insufficient parking and cycle storage facilities, and unacceptable flood risk without a required flood risk assessment, all contrary to the development plan with no material considerations of sufficient weight to outweigh the conflict.
