Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character of the street scene
- The benefits of the proposed development for the appellant's family
What decided it
The proposal would result in considerable and unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the street scene, conflicting with development plan policies and the Framework, which outweighed the personal family circumstances advanced in its favour.
The significant weight attached to the appellant's son's accommodation needs and family circumstances under equality and human rights law was outweighed by the considerable harm to the character and appearance of the street scene and conflict with local and national design policies.
