Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the dropped kerb and associated vehicular crossover upon the character and appearance of the area, with specific reference to street trees
What decided it
The absence of an Arboricultural Impact Assessment to protect a street tree in close proximity to the proposed vehicular crossover, which would likely be damaged by root disturbance during excavation, resulting in harm to the character and appearance of the area.
