Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the adequate provision of services
- the sustainability of the key shopping area
What decided it
The proposal would not harm the sustainability of the key shopping area and adequate provision of services would remain, as the wider area retains a diverse range of units and the appeal unit is relatively small and unlikely to be a significant generator of footfall.
