Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character of the surrounding area
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the future occupants of the proposed loft Flat C
What decided it
The significant harm to the character of the surrounding area and the failure to provide adequate living conditions for future occupants of Flat C significantly and demonstrably outweighed the benefits of housing delivery, even in the context of a shortfall in five-year housing land supply.
The adverse impacts on character and the living conditions of future occupants significantly and demonstrably outweighed the modest benefits of providing two additional homes in a sustainable location when assessed against the policies in the Framework taken as a whole.
