Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the principle of the proposed development would be acceptable, having regard to the location of the appeal site and the loss of the existing use
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring occupants, with regard to noise and disturbance
- the effect of the proposal on parking and highway safety
- whether the proposal would provide adequate cycle storage facilities
What decided it
The proposal would cause unacceptable harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupants through noise and disturbance from late evening opening hours and associated activity, and would generate undue parking pressure and highway safety harm that could not be adequately mitigated.
