Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether it is reasonable and necessary to prevent the playing of live electrically amplified sound in order to protect the living conditions of neighbouring residents from noise and disturbance

What decided it

The proximity of residential properties to the micro-bar and the building's open frontage mean that live amplified music would cause demonstrable harm to neighbouring residents' living conditions, making retention of condition 11 both reasonable and necessary under Policy H12.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies: Policy H12
