Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether condition 4 is reasonable and necessary having regard to providing an acceptable living environment for future occupiers
  • the effect of removing conditions 5 and 6 having regard to providing an acceptable living environment for future occupiers

What decided it

The dwelling is tied to the existing business use through the occupation restriction, so conditions requiring demolition and restoration if the appellant ceases occupation are unnecessary and unreasonable, and a less restrictive occupation condition adequately protects future occupiers from noise harm.
