Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would provide family accommodation
- The effect of the proposed development on the highway network
- Whether the proposed development would provide satisfactory living conditions for the occupiers of the proposed dwellings with particular regard to amenity space provision, privacy, natural light and ceiling heights
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host building, including whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Chatsworth Road Conservation Area
- Whether the proposed development would provide sufficient cycle facilities for future occupiers
- Whether the proposed development would provide sufficient refuse facilities for future occupiers
What decided it
The proposal conflicts with the development plan in relation to family accommodation provision, living conditions (amenity space and privacy), and highway safety, with no material considerations sufficient to outweigh these conflicts.
