Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of future and existing occupiers with regard to the amount of proposed and retained external space and privacy
- the effect on the living conditions of future occupiers with respect to the size of the proposed accommodation
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of occupiers of 9 Humber Road, with particular regard to outlook and access to daylight and sunlight
- whether the scheme would make adequate provision for cycle parking
What decided it
The proposal fails to accord with the development plan on character and appearance, external amenity space provision, and internal space standards, and these conflicts are not outweighed by the limited benefits of the scheme.
