Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the disputed conditions are relevant to the development permitted
  • Whether the disputed conditions are necessary and reasonable in terms of safeguarding the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers

What decided it

The works to the roof terrace would intensify its usage and justify operational restrictions, but the additional 2 hours sought by the appellant would not adversely affect neighbouring occupiers given the urban context, acoustic screening, and existing evening economy activity in the surrounding area.
