Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect that varying the condition would have on the living conditions of nearby occupiers with particular regard to noise and disturbance
What decided it
The proposed extension of delivery hours would cause unacceptable disturbance to nearby residents through noise and general disturbance at times when background noise is lower and residents expect peace and quiet, and this harm is not outweighed by any operational necessity.
