Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the provision of family housing in the borough
- the living conditions of the occupiers, having regard to the standard of accommodation
- the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, having regard to noise and disturbance
What decided it
The first floor flat fails to meet London Plan Policy D6 housing quality standards and creates inadequate living conditions for occupiers and potential noise disturbance to neighbours, conflicting with development plan policies requiring high quality homes.
