Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether conditions 16, 17 and 18 are reasonable, necessary and relevant to planning, having particular regard to highway safety; parking conditions in the vicinity; air quality; the living conditions of the occupiers of nearby dwellings; as well as supporting sustainable modes of transport

What decided it

The Inspector's site observations demonstrating adequate on-street parking capacity in surrounding streets, combined with the Council's failure to provide substantive evidence of parking stress or harm to highway safety, rendered the disputed conditions unnecessary and unreasonable.
