Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development fails to make adequate provision for off-street parking for the care home. This would result in an increase in on-street parking which will have a detrimental impact on highway safety and highway capacity. The proposal is therefore contrary to policy ST1 (a and c) and HG8 of the Ashfield Local Plan Review (2002) and paragraph 116 of the National Planning Policy Framework (2024).
  2. The proposal will have an impact on the residential amenity of residents of the care home as it fails to provide adequate private outdoor amenity space. This is contrary to policy ST1 and HG8 (d) of the Ashfield Local Plan Review (2002) and Part 12 of the National Planning Policy Framework (2024).

From the council's decision notice.
