Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on amenity
What decided it
The sign would be unduly detrimental to amenity by reason of its size, position, intended illumination and dominance in a location that is predominantly residential in character, outweighing the economic and business encouragement benefits cited by the appellant.
The economic and business encouragement benefits and sustainability considerations did not outweigh the concerns regarding undue detriment to amenity.
