Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development upon the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties, with regards to outlook, noise and light levels.

What decided it

The development would not have an adverse effect upon the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers when assessed in the context of the surrounding commercial and school uses, the functional design of the MUGA, and the conditions imposed to control operating hours and lighting.

Plan policies cited: Policy CS19 of the Rutland Core Strategy (2011), Policy SP14 of the Site Allocations and Policies Development Plan Document (2014), Design Guidelines for Rutland and South Kesteven (2021)
