Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of Quorn Court with particular regard to privacy and noise and disturbance arising from pedestrian and vehicular traffic
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of the proposed dwellings with particular regard to access to private outdoor space
What decided it
The material increase in vehicular movements on the shared access loop would cause unacceptable harm to the living conditions of existing Quorn Court occupiers through noise, disturbance and privacy impacts, which could not be outweighed by the benefits of the proposed development.
