Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the appeal scheme offers acceptable living conditions for the occupiers of the flats in terms of the provision of internal living space
What decided it
The flats' gross internal floor areas fall below the minimum standards required by Policy HOU 8 of the development plan, resulting in unacceptable living conditions that cannot be justified by the housing delivery benefits.
Plan policies cited: Policy HOU 8 of the Cheshire East Local Plan Site Allocations and Development Policies Document, Policy HOU 12 of the Cheshire East Local Plan Site Allocations and Development Policies Document, Policy PG7 of the Cheshire East Local Plan Strategy 2010-2030, Policy HOU 1 of the Cheshire East Local Plan Site Allocations and Development Policies Document, Policy SC4 of the Cheshire East Local Plan Strategy 2010-2030
