Core Refusal Reason
Unacceptable impact on residential amenity due to noise and general disturbance.
Decision Maker's Conclusion
- The proposed awning and external seating would cause serious injury to the residential amenities of nearby properties through noise and general disturbance.
- The development's location within a car park, beneath apartments, and adjacent to residential dwellings is considered unsuitable for this type of use.
- Granting permission would set an undesirable precedent for similar developments and would be contrary to the proper planning and sustainable development of the area.
