Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with particular regard to noise and disturbance, waste generation and demand for on-street parking
  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area with particular regard to the storage of waste and recycling

What decided it

The absence of substantive evidence demonstrating harm to neighbouring living conditions, combined with the Council's acceptance of waste management arrangements and the non-intrusive nature of the proposed storage containers, allowed the appeal.
