Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the retention of condition number 4 is necessary to protect the living conditions of the occupants of the newly constructed house with regard to the provision of adequate outside garden space
What decided it
The existing garden area is of appropriate size under Policy H14, and the built-in safeguards of the GPDO are sufficient to protect living conditions without the need for condition 4, making its retention unreasonable and unnecessary.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy H14 of the Local Plan for Slough 2004
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
