Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of nearby residents with particular regard to noise and disturbance and air quality
- the effect of the proposal on highway safety
- whether the proposal achieves the highest standards of fire safety
- whether the proposal makes suitable arrangements for waste management
What decided it
The absence of substantive evidence (noise reports, air quality assessments, fire safety assessments, traffic data) to demonstrate that the car repair use would not cause significant harm to neighbouring residents' living conditions and highway safety in a predominantly residential cul-de-sac location.
