Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether contamination risks can be satisfactorily addressed
  • Whether the location or siting of the building would make its change to residential use impractical or undesirable, having particular regard to the living conditions of future occupants in respect of noise and disturbance, light intrusion and privacy

What decided it

The removal of the hot tubs and enclosure that had formed the basis of the Council's concerns, combined with the adequate separation and intervening space between the buildings, meant that future occupants would not be exposed to unacceptable living conditions.
