Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether or not the proposed development would constitute permitted development as defined by Class MA of the Order
- The effects of the proposed development with regard to the prior approval matters specified in paragraph MA.2(2), with particular regard to the provision of adequate natural light in all habitable rooms of the dwellinghouses; the transport impacts of the development, with particular regard to ensuring safe site access; and the impacts of noise from commercial premises on the intended occupiers of the development
What decided it
The appellant failed to adequately demonstrate that the building's use fell within one or more of the classes specified in Class MA of the Order, particularly failing to establish that previous uses were Class E (or equivalent) rather than Class B2, which is not incorporated within Class E.
