Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the laundry use on the living conditions of nearby residents, with particular reference to noise and disturbance caused by the use of the commercial laundry equipment

What decided it

The constant daily noise from the commercial laundry machinery operating for many hours, which the Inspector found would cause unacceptable aural experiences for residents both within their dwellings and gardens, could not be adequately mitigated by conditions alone and required comprehensive sound-proofing and ventilation measures.
