Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether Conditions 4 and 5 are reasonable and necessary having regard to the effect of the proposed development on ecology
- whether Condition 8 is reasonable and necessary having regard to the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers in respect of noise and disturbance
What decided it
The modest nature of the extensions to existing industrial buildings with negligible ecological value and the absence of substantive evidence of significant additional noise impact did not justify the restrictive conditions imposed.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- CS6MD12
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 57Paragraph 180
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
