Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed extended customer hours on the living conditions of nearby residents, with regards to noise and disturbance
What decided it
The acoustic assessment demonstrating no material additional adverse noise effect, combined with the site's location in a busy mixed-use area with existing late-night premises and the imposition of an Operational Management Plan and detailed noise conditions, justified allowing the extended hours.
