Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of future occupiers and neighbouring residents, with particular regard to privacy, natural light, ventilation, overlooking and noise
  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host building and the surrounding area
  • Whether the proposal would make adequate provision for sustainable travel and avoid harmful transport impacts, with particular regard to cycle parking and measures to manage car use

What decided it

The absence of a completed planning obligation securing permit-free status and associated sustainable travel measures within the Controlled Parking Zone rendered the development unacceptable in transport terms, notwithstanding its acceptability on other grounds.
