Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

the effect of the proposal on the health and wellbeing of local residents, with particular regard to the health of young people
the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with regard to odour, fumes and disturbance

What decided it

The development's location within 400 metres of secondary schools and the resulting increased access for school children to unhealthy food, combined with unresolved concerns about odour and fumes affecting neighbouring residential amenity, brings it into conflict with the development plan with no material considerations of sufficient weight to outweigh this.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies: Policy GP5 (Leeds UDP Review 2006)Policy P10 (Core Strategy as amended by Core Strategy Selection Review 2019)Policy HFT1 (Hot Food Takeaway SPD 2019)Policy HFT3 (Hot Food Takeaway SPD 2019)
