Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of noise on the living conditions of future occupiers of the proposed dwelling and the ongoing use of the existing Church
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The unacceptable effect of noise on the living conditions of future occupiers and the ongoing use of the existing Church, with insufficient evidence of mitigation, significantly and demonstrably outweighed the benefits of housing delivery under the tilted balance.
The benefits of housing delivery and economic benefits were significantly and demonstrably outweighed by the adverse impacts of noise on both the proposed dwelling's occupiers and the Church's continued operation, bringing the proposal into conflict with paragraph 200 and 135 of the Framework.
Framework references: 200, 11, 135
