Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether or not the Council's refusal to issue a certificate of lawful use or development was well-founded
What decided it
The regular business use would result in a material change in the character of the site through visitor traffic, noise from fitness equipment and exertion, and potential parking impacts, which would not be incidental to the residential use and would conflict with the planning condition.
