Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would be suitably located having regard to relevant development plan policies concerning the health and wellbeing of residents, specifically children and young people
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 159a Ilford Lane, with particular reference to the potential for noise and disturbance
- The effect of the proposed hot food takeaway on the living conditions of nearby residents, with particular reference to cooking smells
What decided it
The absence of an odour assessment and mitigation measures prior to determination meant the proposal could not be approved for the change of use element, as it would detrimentally affect nearby residents' living conditions contrary to Policy LP11.
