Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the site is an acceptable location for the proposed use as a hot food takeaway, having particular regard to the health and wellbeing of local schoolchildren
  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of residents of surrounding properties, with regard to noise and disturbance, odour, and vibration
  • the effect of the proposed development on highway safety

What decided it

The proposal complies with the development plan policies, particularly Policy DMD32 regarding distance from school entrances measured from the pupil entrance, and subject to conditions controlling fumes, noise and vibration, would not significantly harm living conditions or highway safety.
