Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the site of Colvestone Primary School with regards to outlook and light
- Whether suitable access during the construction period could be provided
What decided it
The proposal would result in significant harm to users of Colvestone Primary School's outdoor play/learning space through loss of outlook and light, contrary to the development plan's requirements for inclusive and attractive spaces and no significant adverse impacts on neighbour amenity.
