Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the developments have sufficient on-site car parking space and the effect of any on-street car parking, manoeuvring or movement on Rectory Lane in respect of highway and pedestrian safety
- The effect of the developments on the living conditions of the occupiers of surrounding residential properties in respect of noise and disturbance
What decided it
The deficiency in on-site car parking provision and the resulting likelihood of unsafe manoeuvring and reversing activity in Rectory Lane, combined with unacceptable noise and disturbance to neighbouring residents from the intensive 24-hour operation, caused harm that outweighed the benefits of providing needed accommodation for vulnerable adults.
