Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • whether the proposal would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants, with regard to outdoor amenity space
  • the effect of the proposal on biodiversity at 16 Elms Road

What decided it

The proposal accords with the Development Plan read as a whole, with the conflict on biodiversity mitigation outweighed by accordance with other policies and the statutory biodiversity net gain condition.

Framework references: 12, 55, 57, 186, 193
