Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the disputed opening hours condition meets the six tests for planning conditions, having regard to the living conditions of nearby residents and crime prevention
What decided it
The evidence demonstrated that 24-hour opening would not lead to demonstrable harm to amenity through noise, disturbance, anti-social behaviour or crime, and therefore the opening hours condition was no longer necessary to make the development acceptable in planning terms.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy BP8Policy D11Policy BC7Policy CP3Policy SPP1
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 56
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
