Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the conditions are reasonable and necessary in the interests of safeguarding the residential amenities of neighbouring properties
What decided it
The proximity of neighbouring residential properties to the southern boundary of the site and the potential for increased noise from multiple dogs and owners would unacceptably harm residential amenities if the conditions were relaxed.
