Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether condition No. 14 of planning permission 14/01882/FU is necessary in so far as protecting the living conditions of the occupiers of adjoining properties, as well as in terms of ensuring that the dwelling continues to be appropriately designed, and to assimilate well and sympathetically into the character and appearance of the area having regard to local and national planning policies
What decided it
The condition is necessary to maintain appropriate control over potential extensions and outbuildings that could harm the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through loss of outlook, light or privacy, and to preserve the spacious character and design synergy of the locality.
