Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with regard to the noise levels arising from the proposed variation of the conditions relating to the traffic barrier and unloading operations
What decided it
The traffic barrier variation was allowed because measured noise data and absence of complaints during the temporary permission demonstrated acceptable impact, whereas the unloading variation was dismissed because generic noise assessments failed to account for the specific disruptive nature of unloading scaffolding equipment in evening hours.
