Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of No 1 Eagle Road with particular regard to outlook
  • whether suitable measures to manage flood risk can be provided
  • whether the proposed development would make adequate provision for biodiversity and urban greening
  • the effect on highway safety, with particular regard to servicing

What decided it

The proposal conflicts with the development plan on three substantive grounds—living conditions, flood risk, and biodiversity—and the identified harms outweigh the economic benefits of additional retail provision.
