Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the non-compliance with condition nos 2 and 4 of planning permission 14/P/00588 would protect the living conditions of the occupants of 52 and 56 Cline Road in respect of privacy
What decided it
The opportunities for overlooking and loss of privacy would not be materially different to the fallback position of the 2014 planning permission, and the proposed pitched roof section would maintain separation between amenity space and the neighbouring first floor window.

- Policy G1 of the Guildford Borough Local Plan 2003Policy H8 of the Guildford Borough Local Plan 2003Policy D5 of the Guildford Borough Local Plan Development Management Policies 2023
