Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on community balance, having regard to relevant development plan policies
  • the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties, with particular regard to noise, level of activity, property upkeep, waste disposal, turnover of occupants, and parking, and linked to this, on the surrounding area

What decided it

The absence of substantive evidence that the proposal would cause harm to neighbouring living conditions or community balance, combined with the site's good accessibility to services and available parking capacity.
