Inspector: Hunter A

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether there is adequate secure cycle parking provision
Highway safety, with particular regard to parking and whether it is necessary and reasonable for the proposed development to be car-free
The effect of the proposed development upon the living conditions of future occupiers, with particular regard to the ceiling height of the proposed flats

What decided it

The availability of substantial secure cycle parking on nearby Coombe Road and sufficient on-street parking capacity locally meant that the shortfalls in on-site provision would not cause unacceptable impacts on highway safety or amenity.

Framework references: 57, 111, 115

Plan policies cited: Policy T5, Policy T6, Policy D6, Policy DM10

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

Heritage. Listed buildings by grade and distance, conservation areas, scheduled monuments, registered parks and gardens, heritage at risk.
Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.

Then the development plan position, the housing land supply as an Inspector last accepted it, and every appeal decided around the site with its letter.

Every English appeal since 2016, with the letter behind it wherever the Inspectorate published one. Searched by meaning as well as by words, with the key case law counted live across the letters.

Casework that chases the deadlines. Applications, appeals and conditions with their statutory dates.

The judgement stays yours. The tool gathers the material and dates it.
