Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed extraction flue on the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the proposed change of use and extraction flue on the living conditions of neighbours
  • whether the proposal makes adequate arrangements for waste storage and collection

What decided it

The unacceptable effect on the living conditions of neighbouring residents through noise, disturbance and cooking odours, combined with failure to demonstrate adequate waste storage and collection arrangements, outweighed the economic benefits of the proposal.

The economic development benefits and potential local need for the facility were outweighed by the harm to neighbouring residential amenity and inadequate waste management arrangements.
