Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the living conditions of occupiers of nearby dwellings with particular regard to noise and privacy
  • Whether the development site is at an unacceptable risk from flooding

What decided it

The lack of substantive evidence demonstrating that noise impacts on neighbouring dwellings could be adequately mitigated, combined with the absence of a required flood risk assessment for a site in Flood Zone 2.

Framework references: 167

Plan policies cited: Policy E2, Policy RM2
