Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the fence on the character and appearance of the area
- its effect on parking
What decided it
The fence's permanent and prominent position on the front boundary significantly reduces the openness and detracts from the character and appearance of Willow Gardens, contrary to policy CS.9, and this harm is not outweighed by the private benefits to the appellant.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- CS.9CS.26
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.
