Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed decking area on the living conditions of the occupiers of 102A and 104 St Dunstans Hill, with regard to privacy within the rear garden areas of these properties

What decided it

The proposed decking area would be smaller, located further away from neighbouring properties, and have reduced opportunity for overlooking compared to the existing decking area, thereby not causing unacceptable harm to neighbouring privacy.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
Policy 29 of the Sutton Local PlanPolicy D12 of the London Plan

How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
