Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the appeal site is an appropriate location for the proposed development with regard to the local development strategy
  • Whether the proposed development would provide appropriate living conditions for future occupiers of flat 1 with regard to privacy, noise and odour and for all units with regard to waste management
  • Whether the proposed development would achieve appropriate resource efficiency

What decided it

The proposal conflicts with the local development strategy (Policy 10) and fails to provide appropriate privacy for occupiers of flat 1, and material considerations do not indicate the appeal should be decided other than in accordance with the development plan.
