Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect on the living conditions of existing residents of extended opening hours, having particular regard to noise and disturbance

What decided it

The absence of predicted noise outputs from customer conversations and delivery bikes in relation to background noise levels meant there was insufficient evidence to show that the living conditions of nearby residents would be adequately protected.
