Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
- the effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupants of Nos 6 and 6A Boyn Valley Road, with respect to outlook and privacy
- whether the proposal provides adequate living conditions for future occupiers, with respect to the outlook and the provision of outdoor space
- the effect of the development on highway safety
- whether the proposal would meet sustainability and carbon reduction requirements
What decided it
The cumulative harm to character and appearance, neighbouring living conditions, future occupier amenity, highway safety, and lack of demonstrated sustainability compliance meant the proposal conflicted with the development plan and the identified benefits were insufficient to justify permission.
