Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- Whether appropriate living conditions would be secured for the future occupiers of the proposed development with particular regard to outlook and size of accommodation
- The effect of the proposed development on nearby trees
- The effect of the proposed development on biodiversity
- The effect of the proposed development on highway safety with regard to parking
What decided it
The proposed development conflicts with the development plan on multiple grounds—character and appearance harm from prominent storage structures, inadequate living conditions for future occupants, likely significant harm to protected trees, and failure to achieve mandatory biodiversity net gain—with no material considerations indicating a decision should be taken otherwise.
