Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the living condition of surrounding residents, with particular regard to noise and disturbance
- whether the location outside of a town or neighbourhood centre is acceptable, with particular regard to the development plan
- the effect on highway safety, with particular regard to location, parking provision and pedestrian access
What decided it
The lack of detailed noise survey evidence establishing that adverse noise and disturbance from the dog grooming use and air conditioning unit could be controlled by planning conditions, given the proximity to residential neighbours and the unpredictable nature of dog barking.
