Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development is acceptable having regard to the protection of employment floorspace
- whether the proposed development would provide suitable living conditions for future occupiers in respect of outlook, light, floor to ceiling height and provision of external amenity space
- whether the proposed development would provide adequate facilities for the storage of cycles and refuse
- whether the proposed development would make adequate provision for urban greening
What decided it
The unjustified loss of employment floorspace combined with inadequate living conditions (particularly poor outlook, insufficient floor-to-ceiling heights, and inadequate external amenity space) meant the proposal conflicted with the development plan with no material considerations to override this.
