Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area and street scene.
What decided it
The side extension would not create a 'terracing effect' due to the remaining separation distance from the neighbouring property and the complementary design with appropriate set-backs, such that the character and appearance of the area and street scene would not be adversely affected.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy P15 of the Solihull Local Plan 2013
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.
