Why it was refused

  1. The proposed wording of Condition 4 attached to DC/2025/01536 fails to protect the living conditions of neighbouring properties due to its lack of detail and clarity and fails to comply with Local Plan Policy HC3
  2. The proposed wording of Condition 4 attached to DC/2025/01536 is not precise and not enforceable and so fails to meet 2 of the 6 tests of the requirements for planning conditions as advised by the NPPF - (precise and enforceable)

From the council's decision notice.
