Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of Nos. 9 to 12 Mapperley Close, with particular regard to outlook, and potential for noise and disturbance

What decided it

The combination of the building's lower height, positioning further from the boundary than existing parking, new landscaping, and the physical shielding effect of the building itself would adequately mitigate impacts on neighbouring living conditions regarding outlook, noise and disturbance.
