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 substantial and long-lasting harm to the character and appearance of the area, arising from the proposed dwelling's incongruous form and isolated position within the street scene, significantly and demonstrably outweighed the moderate benefits of housing delivery in the absence of a 5-year supply.

The adverse impacts of granting planning permission, specifically substantial harm to character and appearance, significantly and demonstrably outweighed the moderate benefits of housing delivery and efficient use of land when assessed against the Framework policies taken as a whole, displacing the presumption in favour of sustainable development

Framework references: 11

Plan policies cited: Policy PG3, Policy TP27, Development Management in Birmingham Development Plan Document (2021)
