Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties with particular regard to vibration and emissions
  • whether the proposal is in a suitable location for housing, with regard to the Council's spatial strategy and access to services and facilities
  • the effect of the proposal on highway, pedestrian and cyclist safety
  • whether the proposal makes appropriate contributions towards the provision of infrastructure

What decided it

The proposal has failed to demonstrate that the effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupiers of Nos 16 and 21 with regard to vibration has been adequately addressed.

the small contribution to housing supply and economic benefits during construction did not outweigh the potentially harmful effect on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties
