Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt
- the effect of the proposal on the character of the street scene, including protected trees
- whether the site is an appropriate location for the proposal, with particular regard to local and national policy on flood risk
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupants of No.32 Windsor Road, with particular regard to outlook and privacy
- the effect of the proposal on biodiversity, with particular regard to protected species
- whether the proposal would meet sustainability and carbon reduction requirements
What decided it
The cumulative harm to character and appearance, living conditions through loss of privacy, flood risk acceptability, and biodiversity, in the absence of sufficient information to demonstrate compliance with development plan policies, outweighed the benefits of providing wheelchair accessible accommodation.
