Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed change of use on the vitality and viability of the retail function of Bramley Local Centre
  • whether acceptable living conditions would be provided for future occupiers of the proposed flat with regard to private amenity space
  • whether appropriate car and delivery parking provision would be provided for the proposed change of use

What decided it

The inadequate private amenity space provided for future occupiers of the proposed flat, which conflicts with development plan policies requiring private and usable amenity space for new housing.

Framework references: 116

Plan policies cited: Policy ST1, Policy TCS2, Policy DM1, Policy DM4, Policy DM5, Policy DM9, Policy TD1, Policy BNP-L1
