Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would make adequate provision for vehicle parking to avoid parking congestion in the area
- The effect of the proposals on the living conditions of the occupiers of 50 and 54 Gayner Road in terms of noise and disturbance
- The effect of the proposals on highway safety
- The effect of the proposals on waste and recycling collections locally
What decided it
The significant harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers from noise and disturbance caused by the rear parking area outweighed the adequate parking provision and absence of highway safety harm.
The adequate parking provision and absence of highway safety or waste collection harm did not overcome the significant harm to neighbouring living conditions from noise and disturbance, resulting in conflict with the Development Plan.
