Core Planning Reasoning

The proposed development is recommended for grant as it constitutes an appropriate intensification of residential use on a suitably located infill site, provides a high standard of residential amenity for future occupants, and is acceptable in terms of design, height, and impact on the surrounding area.

Decision Maker's Conclusion

  • The development provides high-quality residential accommodation that meets or exceeds national standards for floor area, private amenity space, and daylight provision.
