Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the current self-storage use on the character and appearance of this part of Kirklees
  • The effect of the self-storage use on the living conditions of the occupants of neighbouring properties, with particular reference to outlook, noise and disturbance and light pollution
  • The effect relating to traffic generation and on-street parking

What decided it

The imposition of conditions requiring landscaping, container reduction, and appropriate lighting could adequately mitigate the identified harms to character, appearance and living conditions, making the appeal acceptable on ground (a).
