Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

What decided it
The proposed development fails to comply with the development plan on three independent grounds: harm to neighbouring amenity through loss of outlook, inadequate parking provision creating highway safety concerns, and failure to demonstrate energy efficiency compliance prior to determination.
