Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the conditions are necessary and reasonable having regard to on-street car parking provision in the area, highway safety, sustainable transport choices and air quality
What decided it
The disputed conditions failed to meet the tests of reasonableness, necessity and relevance set out in the Framework because they sought to control individual occupier actions rather than restrict the property, required planning obligations without exceptional circumstances, and addressed administrative rather than planning matters.
