Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- effect of the proposal on the living conditions of surrounding residents with specific regard to privacy, enclosure and outlook
- effect of the proposal on the living conditions of future occupiers with specific regard to daylight and sunlight
- loss of any existing employment space
What decided it
The unacceptable harm to the living conditions of both neighbouring residents and future occupiers, combined with insufficient evidence that the loss of employment space was justified, meant the proposal conflicted with development plan policies and the Framework.
Framework references: 135
Plan policies cited: DM32, DM33, Policy 15 (LCS), Policy D6 (LP), Policy 11 (LDMP), Policy 5 (LCS), Policy E2 (LP)
