Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the proposals on the living conditions of the occupiers of 18 Acacia Grove with particular regard to privacy
- the effect of the proposed car parking provision on highway safety
What decided it
The proposal's design successfully assimilates with the built context through its sympathetic response to local character, the privacy screening adequately protects neighbouring occupiers, and the parking provision accords with policy standards and does not create unacceptable highway impacts.
