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 existing and future occupants with regard to outlook, light, and amenity space provision
- whether or not the development would achieve the highest standards of fire safety
- whether or not the development would support sustainable modes of travel
What decided it
The combination of significant harm to character and appearance through excessive scale and height, lack of evidence demonstrating compliance with fire safety standards for the full development, and failure to secure sustainable travel measures through a completed planning obligation.
