Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed accommodation would be of an acceptable quality
- Whether the proposal makes adequate provision to restrict residential car parking permits to blue badge holders only
What decided it
The unacceptable quality of the proposed accommodation, particularly the poor outlook and daylight conditions resulting from the single-aspect layout and exposure to a busy public footway, combined with the failure to secure adequate car-free parking restrictions through a properly executed legal agreement.
