Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the housing mix in the area with particular regard to the provision of family accommodation
- The effect of the development on the living conditions of occupiers of the adjoining residential property and residents in the surrounding area, with regard to noise and disturbance, waste disposal, parking, property maintenance and other occupancy matters
What decided it
The appellant's provision of supported housing for vulnerable individuals through a non-profit organisation satisfied the policy exception for housing need under Policies HO1 and HO2, and no cogent evidence demonstrated adverse effects on living conditions despite the change of use.
Plan policies cited: Policy 8 of the Nottingham City Aligned Core Strategy Part 1 Local Plan, Policy HO1 of the Local Plan Part 2 – Land and Planning Policies, Policy HO2 of the Local Plan Part 2 – Land and Planning Policies, Policy HO6 of the Local Plan Part 2 – Land and Planning Policies, Policy 10 of the Aligned Core Strategy, Policy DE1 of the Local Plan Part 2 – Land and Planning Policies, Policy TR1 of the Local Plan Part 2 – Land and Planning Policies
