Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • the living conditions of future occupiers with regard to the provision of private outdoor amenity space

What decided it

The significant harm to the living conditions of future occupiers resulting from the absence of satisfactory private outdoor amenity space, which would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the limited benefits of the scheme even under the tilted balance.

The significant harm to living conditions of future occupiers from poor quality private outdoor amenity space significantly and demonstrably outweighs the limited benefits of housing delivery, even though the Council cannot demonstrate a five-year housing land supply.
