Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would provide safe and suitable access and parking provision for all users
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 113 and 113A Duncan Road with regard to outdoor amenity space
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of future occupiers with regard to outlook and light
What decided it
The unacceptable harm to highway safety arising from the narrow shared access and inadequate parking provision, combined with harm to the living conditions of both existing and future occupiers, outweighed the limited benefit of providing additional residential accommodation suitable for disabled persons.
