Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the provision of family sized-homes in the area
  • whether or not the proposed development provides suitable living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to the provision of indoor living space
  • whether or not the proposed development makes suitable provision for vehicle parking, cycle parking and refuse storage having regard to the front forecourt layout

What decided it

The proposed development would provide suitable living conditions for future occupiers and make suitable provision for parking and refuse storage, with no unacceptable effect on family-sized housing provision, and therefore accords with the development plan.
