Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect that varying the opening hours of the café would have on the living conditions of neighbouring residents, with particular regard to noise and disturbance
What decided it
The absence of a noise assessment and management plan to demonstrate that extended opening hours would not cause undue noise and disturbance to neighbouring residents, combined with the close physical relationship between the café and residential properties, meant the proposal would adversely affect living conditions contrary to Policy DMG1 and NPPF paragraphs 130 and 185.
Framework references: 185, 130, 54
Plan policies cited: Policy DMG1 of the Ribble Valley Core Strategy 2008–2028
