Installation of a 2m reflective acoustic fence on the northern boundary and relocation of the existing Amazon locker to the south side of the site and relocated gas cage for improved accessibility.

Why it was refused

  1. The proposal to vary Condition 2 attached to application 24/P/1257/FUL to allow for the creation a separate retail unit would result in the proposed use conflicting with the description of development as originally approved (extension of existing sales building). Finney and Fiske case law explains that when the proposed changes conflict with the original description of development, it no longer falls within the remit of a section 73 application. Thus, a section 73 application cannot change the original description of development and this proposal cannot be approved through a section 73 application type.

From the council's decision notice.
