Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of the host dwelling and neighbouring properties, in relation to car parking provision, outlook and light
- whether or not the proposed development would provide adequate cycle parking
- whether or not the proposed development would provide adequate waste and recycling facilities
What decided it
The harm to living conditions from car parking stress and loss of light, combined with inadequate cycle parking provision, outweighed the neutral benefit of providing one additional dwelling in an area with a demonstrable four-year housing land supply.
The addition of a single dwelling did not outweigh the harm to living conditions of the host dwelling and neighbouring properties from car parking provision and loss of light, and the inadequate cycle parking provision.
