- the effect on the living conditions of surrounding occupiers with particular reference to noise and disturbance
What decided it
The site's location immediately adjacent to the developed footprint of Stickney as a large inland village, combined with compliance with Policy SP3 criteria and the absence of material harm to living conditions compared to the existing and extant uses, justified allowing the outline application.
