Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- if the principle of the proposed development is acceptable and its effect on the character and appearance of the area
- whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for the future occupants of the proposal, with particular regard to the provision of private amenity space
- whether the proposal would provide an adequate number of car parking spaces and its effect on highway safety
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupants of No. 43 Sanders Close, with particular regard to outlook and loss of light
What decided it
The proposal fails to satisfy the requirements for residential development on garden land due to harm to character and appearance, fails to provide adequate parking and private amenity space, and conflicts with the development plan taken as a whole.
