Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the condition is reasonable or necessary in the interests of the living conditions of the occupiers of Lothlorien, with specific regard to privacy
What decided it
The submitted details for the boundary wall treatment clearly demonstrated that the proposed 1.8m high solid wall would provide sufficient screening to prevent overlooking of the neighbouring property, making the requirement to submit further details unreasonable but compliance with the submitted details necessary.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy DEV1
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
