Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposed development would provide satisfactory living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to sunlight and outlook
  • bin storage provision

What decided it

The proposed basement rooms would provide unacceptable living conditions for future occupiers due to the complete lack of sunlight and very poor outlook, contrary to Policy D6 of The London Plan, Policy LP2 of the Hackney Local Plan 2033, and paragraph 135 of the Framework.

Framework references: 135

Plan policies cited: Policy D6 of The London Plan, Policy LP2 of the Hackney Local Plan 2033, Standard 32 of the Mayor of London's Housing Supplementary Planning Guidance, Policy LP57 of the Hackney Local Plan 2033, Policy LP1 of the Hackney Local Plan 2033, Policy LP17 of the Hackney Local Plan 2033
