- The effect of the development on the living conditions of neighbours, with particular regard to odour, noise and light
What decided it
The development would cause material harm to the living conditions of neighbouring residents through uncontrollable odour, noise and light impacts from the partially open shisha bar structure in close proximity to residential units, contrary to development plan policy and the Framework.
