Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- whether the proposal would provide satisfactory living conditions for future occupants, with particular regard to daylight
- whether the proposal would provide satisfactory living conditions for existing and future occupants, with particular regard to refuse storage
What decided it
The significant harm to living conditions from inadequate refuse storage, combined with moderate harm to character and appearance and daylight provision, significantly and demonstrably outweighs the modest benefits of a single residential unit and small retail unit in a location with a housing supply shortfall.
The modest benefits of housing delivery, retail provision, and effective land use were significantly and demonstrably outweighed by moderate harm to character and appearance, moderate harm to daylight provision for future residents, and significant harm to refuse storage facilities for existing and future occupants.
