Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers with specific regard to private outdoor space
What decided it
The poor-quality living conditions resulting from inadequate private outdoor space due to direct overlooking from the neighbouring property substantially and demonstrably outweigh the limited housing benefits of a single dwelling.
The limited social and economic benefits of one additional dwelling and the Council's housing land supply shortfall were substantially outweighed by the conflict with the development plan and the Framework's requirement for high standards of amenity for future residents.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy TD1 of the Local Plan Part 1 (2018)Policy DM5 of the Local Plan Part 2 (2023)
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 154Paragraph 206Paragraph 11
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
