Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the living conditions of the neighbouring residents with regard to noise and odour
- Whether or not the development results in inconveniences for road users and is prejudicial to highway safety as a result of any additional demand for on-street parking
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the site and the surrounding area, with particular regard to the site's location close to the Chingford Green Conservation Area
What decided it
The unacceptable effect of odour from the use on neighbouring residents' living conditions, combined with the poor design and appearance of the waste storage unit, could not be adequately mitigated and conflicted with development plan policies.
