Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the living conditions of occupants of No 15 Solent Road with regard to outlook
- Whether there are any other material considerations that indicate otherwise that permission should be granted
What decided it
The existence of an extant planning permission for a substantially similar two-storey rear extension, which represents a realistic fallback position with no discernibly different outcome for neighbouring living conditions, outweighed the identified conflict with the development plan.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy HE2
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 57
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.
