Why it was refused

  1. The Local Planning Authority consider that, in the absence of a draft s106 agreement which requires a £12k contribution to fund a Traffic Regulation Order, the application fails to demonstrate that the development will not lead to an increase in on street parking creating a harm to highway and pedestrian safety contrary to policy T2 of the Leeds Core Strategy (2019 as amended), and guidance within the Leeds City Council Transport SPD guidance on access and parking layout.
  2. The Local Planning Authority considers the noise impact assessment is inadequate and the tyre repair and replacement services within the building are already resulting in increased levels of noise and disturbance that arise from general activities associated with vehicle repair, engine noise, and use of hydraulic tools and lifting equipment. Given the close proximity of adjacent residential properties to the site, the use would have a materially adverse impact upon residential amenity. The proposal is therefore contrary to the wider aims of Core Strategy (2019 as amended) policy P10, saved Unitary Development Plan (Review 2006) policy GP5 and the guidance contained within the National Planning Policy Framework (2024).

From the council's decision notice.
