Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties, with particular regard to noise and disturbance
- the effect of the proposal on highway safety and parking provision
- the effect of the proposal on the character of the area
What decided it
The absence of substantive evidence regarding management arrangements, resident numbers, staffing patterns, and parking provision, which prevented demonstration that the proposals would not result in harmful noise and disturbance to neighbours or unacceptable highway safety impacts.
Plan policies cited: Policy SADM11, Policy SP1, Policy SP7, Policy SP9, Parking Standards Supplementary Planning Guidance (2004), Interim Policy for Car Parking Standards and Garage Sizes (2014)
