Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on on-street parking capacity and the resultant effect on the amenities of local residents

What decided it

The existing garage was not usable for parking due to its narrow width, and the removal of the garage combined with the creation of an off-street parking space would have a neutral or marginal positive effect on the local parking situation, thereby not materially harming the amenities of local residents.
