Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the development would result in the unacceptable loss of family accommodation
  • The effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties, with particular regard to noise, levels of activity, property upkeep, waste disposal, turnover of occupants, and parking, and linked to this, on the surrounding area

What decided it

The development results in the unacceptable loss of a family dwelling suitable for family occupation, which conflicts with the development plan policies seeking to retain and provide family housing in the city.

Plan policies cited: Policy 8 of the Aligned Core Strategies Part 1 Local Plan (ACS) 2014, Policy HO1 of the Nottingham City Land and Planning Policies Development Plan Document Local Plan Part 2 (LAPP) 2020, Policy HO2 of the LAPP, Policy HO6 of the LAPP, Policy 10 of the ACS, Policy DE1 of the LAPP, Policy DE2 of the LAPP, Policy TR1 of the LAPP, Policy IN2 of the LAPP
