Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the proposal on biodiversity

What decided it

The carport's visual integration with the host dwelling through matching materials and the site's topography, combined with the diverse character of existing boundary treatments in the area, demonstrates that the proposal would not harm character and appearance, and conditions can secure the required biodiversity net gain.
