    Statement Upheld Planning applications 01-Mar-2021

The fault caused no injustice to Mr B.

  • London Borough of Croydon (19 020 965)

    Statement Not upheld Planning applications 26-Feb-2021

    Summary: Mr X complains on behalf of Mr Y and Ms W that the Council made a flawed decision when it approved plans for development close to their home. He says the Council did not properly consider the impact on light and wrongly approved the development despite it failing the relevant tests. We find the Council made a decision which was not impacted by fault. The errors in a daylight study had no bearing on the decision made, and the other issues raised by Mr X are matters of professional judgement which, in the absence of procedural fault, the Ombudsman cannot question.
