Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the variation of condition 10 to provide extended operational hours between 0400 and 0030 daily would have an unacceptable impact on the living conditions of the nearby residents with specific regard to noise and disturbance

What decided it

The absence of any noise complaints during the temporary trial period, combined with the lack of substantiated evidence from the Council to support their refusal, demonstrated that the extended hours would not result in significant harm to neighbouring living conditions.
