Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether prior approval is deemed to have been granted
- whether sufficient information has been submitted to assess the impacts of noise from commercial premises on the intended occupiers of the proposed development
- whether sufficient information has been submitted to assess the impact on intended occupiers of the development of the introduction of a residential use in an area the authority considers to be important for general or heavy industry, waste management, storage and distribution, or a mix of such uses
- whether sufficient information has been submitted to assess the transport impacts of the development
- whether sufficient information has been submitted to assess contamination risks in relation to the building
What decided it
Insufficient information was submitted to assess the impact of noise from commercial premises on the intended occupiers of the proposed development, as the noise assessment did not capture the full range of stone cutting and polishing activities at the neighbouring Blyth Marble facility.
