Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the change of use is acceptable having regard to policies related to promotion of healthy lifestyles
- The effect on the vitality, viability and function of the Local Centre
- The effect on the living conditions of neighbouring residents
- Whether the development is acceptable in the absence of a planning obligation precluding business parking permits
What decided it
The proposal conflicts with the development plan on multiple grounds—healthy lifestyles policy, local centre vitality, living conditions, and sustainable transport—and these harms are not outweighed by economic benefits.
