Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the amended Servicing Management Plan would be satisfactory with regard to the safe and efficient operation of the surrounding highway network and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with particular regard to any night time noise and disturbance
What decided it
The appellant failed to demonstrate that on-street servicing from Fenchurch Street was necessary, as the internal servicing bay was adequate and designed for this purpose, and the proposal conflicts with development plan policy requiring off-street servicing and protection of residential living conditions from night-time noise and disturbance.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- DM16.5 (4)Policy T7
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
