Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on public health

What decided it

The location of the development within a large commercial retail park at considerable distance from residential properties means it would not significantly increase access to unhealthier food options for local residents, and thus would not have a significant adverse effect on public health.
