Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the supply of family sized housing in the Borough
- the effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties, with regard to noise and disturbance
- whether the development encourages sustainable transport methods, having regard to car and cycle parking
What decided it
The unacceptable reduction in the supply of family-sized housing in the Borough, combined with the materially harmful effect on the living conditions of neighbouring occupants through increased noise and disturbance, outweighs the limited benefits of encouraging sustainable transport methods.
