Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would provide adequate living conditions for the future occupants, with particular regard to the size of the internal floor area
- whether the proposed development would provide adequate living conditions for future occupants and occupants of neighbouring properties, with particular regard to outlook and privacy
- whether the proposed development would satisfy housing design principles and relevant development plan policy
What decided it
The significant shortfall in internal floor area below the minimum space standard of 70 square metres, combined with poor outlook and unacceptable overlooking conditions, meant the development would not provide adequate living conditions for future occupants and conflicted with the development plan.
Plan policies cited: Policy 6, Policy 14, Policy 21
