Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect on the living conditions of the occupiers of Hales Pasture House, specifically in relation to noise disturbance
What decided it
Agreement between the appellant and the Council, reflected in a Statement of Common Ground, that a single condition requiring a scheme of noise mitigation works would safeguard the living conditions of the occupiers of Hales Pasture House and render the development acceptable and policy-compliant.
With the noise mitigation condition in place the extension accorded with the development plan, and the Inspector found no material considerations of sufficient weight to justify a decision otherwise than in accordance with the plan.
