Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed extraction system on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers on Roman Bank and Langton Court with particular regard to noise and odour
What decided it
The proposed extraction system would fail to demonstrate that noise and odour emissions would not unduly harm the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, particularly given the low height and horizontal design of the external flue outlet in close proximity to residential windows and private outdoor space.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy SP10
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 135
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
