Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the appeal site is a suitable location for the development, having regard to the vitality and viability of the Whitton key shopping frontage
- The effect of the proposed development upon the living conditions of existing occupiers, with particular regard to noise
- Highway safety with particular regard to adequacy of car parking
What decided it
The ancillary and subservient nature of the proposed take-away service to the primary restaurant use, combined with the Council's prior acceptance of the loss of retail space and the absence of objective evidence of unacceptable noise or highway impacts, justified removal of the restrictive condition.
