Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposed development complies with the conditions, limitations or restrictions specified in Part 3, Class R of The Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 2015 (as amended)
  • whether prior approval should be granted having regard to paragraphs R.3(1)(b)(i) and (ii) of the GPDO with particular regard to the transport and highways and noise impacts of the development

What decided it

The proposal fails to comply with Class E requirements because the noise levels generated (99 dB(A) at 1m from roll forming units) could not be carried out in any residential area without detriment to amenity, and highway safety would be compromised by substandard visibility and conflicts with parked vehicles on The Ridings.
