Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of existing properties, with particular reference to noise and disturbance
  • greater-needed family housing

What decided it

Conditions restricting opening hours, servicing times, and requiring a site management plan would adequately protect the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers from noise and disturbance, and the loss of three non-affordable two-bedroom flats was not substantiated as conflicting with housing policy in the absence of demonstrated housing supply shortfalls.

Plan policies cited: Policy C10, Policy SP1, Policy DM1, Saved Policy DC10, Saved Policy DC26, Policy H1, Policy H6
