Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The permeable, lightweight design of the car port combined with the already-mixed and varied character of the street scene meant the proposal would not materially harm the character and appearance of the area.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy D1 of the Fareham Local Plan 2037 (April 2023)
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 57
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.
