Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of nearby occupiers with regard to privacy, noise and disturbance
- Whether the proposal would provide appropriate living conditions for future occupiers with regard to outlook, privacy, external space, daylight and sunlight
- The effect of the proposal on highway safety with regard to parking
- Whether the appeal site is an appropriate location for the proposal with regard to the local development strategy
What decided it
The proposal conflicts with the development plan across multiple policy areas (character and appearance, living conditions of neighbours and future occupiers, and highway safety) and material considerations do not indicate the appeal should be decided otherwise.
