Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect that varying condition 4 would have on the living conditions of nearby residents

What decided it

The generous availability of on-street parking in the immediate and wider area, combined with the self-regulating nature of the business due to varying appointment lengths and existing opening hour restrictions, meant that removing customer caps and reducing the changeover period would not cause significant harm to neighbouring residents' living conditions.
