About this application

This is a planning application for a change of use at 12 Piece End Close Sheffield S35 4NX. Sheffield has handled 9,053 applications of this type. This one was decided in 52 days, 4 days quicker than Sheffield's typical decision time. There has been 1 other application at this address. We hold 377 applications in total for the S35 postcode area.

Why it was refused

  1. The Local Planning Authority considers that the application fails to provide sufficient information, including the absence of floor plans, details of internal layout and bedroom numbers, staffing levels, operational arrangements and proposed boundary treatments or security measures. As a result, the Local Planning Authority is unable to properly assess the intensity of the proposed or its impacts on neighbouring residential amenity arising from comings and goings, noise, disturbance and general activity associated with the development. The proposal is, therefore, contrary to the National Planning Policy Framework (Paragraphs 135(f), 198, 115 and 116) and the relevant policies of the Sheffield UDP (Policy H5 (b) and (c), Policy H14 (d) and (k), which seeks to protect the amenity of existing and future occupiers.

From the council's decision notice.
