Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers with specific regard to internal space
- whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers with specific regard to private external space
- whether the proposed development would make appropriate provision for bin and bicycle storage, with specific regard to encouraging the use of bicycles, and the living conditions of future occupiers and occupiers of neighbouring properties
What decided it
The proposal fails to provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers regarding internal space, private external space, and appropriate bin and cycle storage provision, conflicting with local plan policies H6, H15, H16, DH7, RE7 and good practice guidance.
Plan policies cited: Policy H6, Policy H15, Policy RE7, Policy H16, Policy DH7, Policy H14, Policy HD13
