Appeal Decisions

The committee was scheduled to review two appeal decisions:

• Mill Farm, 62 Mill Road, Stapleford: An appeal against the refusal to vary a condition relating to opening hours was dismissed. The planning officer had recommended refusal of the application, and the inspector agreed that the proposed opening hours would negatively impact the living conditions of nearby residents due to increased noise and disturbance. The Appeal Summary - 24-00536-VOC - Mill Farm appeal decision CM SH checked document notes that the inspector was not satisfied that noise and disturbance arising from activity on the site, particularly in external areas, could be suitably controlled through planning conditions and considers the existing opening hours are appropriate and necessary to ensure the development preserves the living conditions.

• Broadgate House, Broadgate, Beeston: An appeal against the refusal to allow the construction of nine student accommodation self-contained studio flats and changes to the basement car park layout was allowed. The planning officer had recommended approval of the application, but the committee had refused it. The Appeal Summary - 24-00280-FUL Broadgate House OW SH checked document notes that the inspector considered that the proposed internal floor spaces provided by the development would be consistent with other purpose-built student accommodation schemes granted planning permission within the area.
