- Increased noise, smells, overbearing development
- New uses and their impacts on neighbours
- Loss of privacy
- Over-development of the site
- Layout and design, including density and landscaping
- Access, parking and servicing, highway safety issues
- Special designations, eg conservation area, listed building
- Creation of a precedent (only where there is a genuine risk of proliferation)
- Planning history (but not necessarily binding)
- Demonstrable need for affordable housing

Examples of matters that are NOT material planning considerations
- Lowering of property values
- Loss of a private view
- Character and motives of the applicant
