Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 5 South Drive, with particular regard to outlook
  • The effect of the proposed development on highway safety
  • The effect of the proposed development on flooding

What decided it

The proposed development would result in conditions harmful to highway safety through inadequate parking provision and increased parking stress in an area already experiencing very high stress, without mitigation measures.
