Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed access upon the living conditions of adjoining residential occupiers, having particular regard to potential noise and disturbance
- Whether or not it has been satisfactorily demonstrated that acceptable arrangements for the collection of household waste from the site would prevail
What decided it
The failure to satisfactorily demonstrate acceptable arrangements for the collection of household waste from the site, which would cause significant harm to the living conditions of future occupiers and general amenities of the area.
The considerable benefits of delivering seven residential units in an urban location well-served by facilities, together with construction phase jobs and local economic support, were outweighed by the significant harm caused by the inability to secure satisfactory waste collection arrangements.
