Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposals on public safety and visual amenity including whether they would preserve or enhance the setting, character or appearance of the Portland and Brunswick Square Conservation Area
What decided it
The substantial harm to public safety, visual amenity and the setting of the conservation area outweighs the moderate public benefits of the smart infrastructure proposals.
The public benefits of smart infrastructure and connectivity services were outweighed by the substantial harm to public safety, visual amenity and the setting of the Portland and Brunswick Square Conservation Area.
