Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the acoustic fencing on the southern boundary is necessary to protect the living conditions of the adjacent residential occupants having regard to noise
- the effect of the omission of the acoustic fencing on the character of the area
What decided it
The condition requiring acoustic fencing is necessary and reasonable to safeguard the living conditions of the occupiers of the adjacent dwelling from intermittent and disruptive noise arising from the operation of the holiday park, and its omission would fail to comply with Policies 2, 3 and 30 of the Local Plan.
Framework references: 198
Plan policies cited: Policy 2, Policy 3, Policy 30, Policy 1, Policy 9
