Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the use operating in the extended hours on the living conditions of neighbouring residents, with particular reference to noise and disturbance from deliveries and collections

What decided it

The inability to adequately mitigate through enforceable planning conditions the noise and disturbance from delivery couriers and potential customers accessing the premises during extended early morning hours when neighbouring residents would reasonably expect quieter conditions.

Plan policies cited: Policy A1, Policy A4, Policy T4, Policy TC4, Policy G1, Policy D1
