Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The proposed extension would extend forward of the established building line and erode the openness and spaced character of the corner plot, causing harmful effects on the character and appearance of the area that outweigh the public benefits of meeting the needs of a disabled occupant.
