Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed change of use of the ground floor on the provision of community facilities in Fulford
- The effect of the proposed frontage alterations and fencing on the character and appearance of the building and the Fulford Conservation Area
What decided it
The change of use to a replacement community facility of equivalent capacity was acceptable and would not harm community provision, but the unsympathetic frontage alterations and high fencing would harm the conservation area's character and appearance and could not be justified by the public benefits of bringing the building back into use.
