Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the street scene
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and existing adjoining properties
- The effect of the proposed development on the outdoor and indoor living conditions of both the existing and proposed occupiers
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of existing occupiers in respect of privacy
- Fire safety
- Biodiversity
What decided it
The cumulative harm to character and appearance, living conditions, privacy, and the absence of required fire safety and biodiversity information outweighed the modest benefits of efficient site use and housing contribution.
