Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupiers of the dwelling
What decided it
The deficient amount of rear private amenity space resulting from the proposal would be disproportionately and uncharacteristically small relative to the extended dwelling's footprint and the prevailing character of the area, causing unacceptable harm to occupiers' living conditions.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy CS21 of the Woking Core Strategy 2012
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 135
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.
