Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal represents an appropriate form of development on the site, with particular regard to i) parking provision, ii) the level of external amenity space to be provided, and iii) the effect on the living conditions of neighbouring occupants in terms of privacy and light
What decided it
The proposal would fail to provide adequate parking provision and suitable external amenity space, resulting in unacceptable harm to highway and pedestrian safety and to the standard of accommodation for a vulnerable group, which conflicts with the development plan and Framework requirements.
