Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and function of the Caledonian Road Local Shopping Area (LSA)

What decided it

There would be no net increase in the number of betting shops/adult gaming centres within the Local Shopping Area as the existing use was a betting shop and the proposed use an adult gaming centre, and the separate licensing regime would adequately control the operation of the use.
