Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the disputed condition No 4 is reasonable and necessary in the interests of highway safety with particular reference to parking provision and the effect that the removal of that condition would have on the living conditions of the occupiers of the neighbouring dwelling with regard to noise and disturbance
What decided it
The office floorspace would not increase with the removal of the desk restriction, meaning the number of people accessing the site would remain the same, so there was no clear justification for limiting desk rental numbers in the interests of highway safety or neighbour amenity.
