Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupants of surrounding residential properties with regard to noise and disturbance
- Whether the site is suitable for a hairdressing salon, bearing in mind development plan policies and national planning advice relating to main town centre uses
What decided it
The harm to the living conditions of occupants of adjacent residential properties from noise and disturbance generated by the hairdressing salon use outweighed compliance with town centre location policies.
The accordance with policies relating to main town centre uses did not outweigh the harm to the living conditions of the occupants of adjacent residential properties.
