Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Effect of the proposed development on parking pressure and highway safety
  • Effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • Effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with regard to privacy

What decided it

The closure of the existing car repair garage would release sufficient on-street parking capacity to offset the parking demand of the proposed residential development, thereby resolving the primary concern regarding highway safety and parking pressure.
