Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal upon the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • The effect of the proposal upon the living conditions of occupants of 10 Nelmes Road with regard to outlook
  • Whether sufficient information has been provided to demonstrate that the proposal would not cause harm to the living conditions of occupants of 10 Nelmes Road with regard to noise and vibration

What decided it

The proposal fails to provide sufficient information to demonstrate that it would not cause unacceptable harm to living conditions of neighbouring occupants with regard to noise and vibration, as the submitted scheme does not implement the ground-level mitigation upon which the acoustic predictions were based.
