Why it was refused

  1. By reason of the lack of information provided with regard to staffing numbers, the proposal fails to demonstrated that adequate parking provision can be provided for the additional floor space and children places provided at this nursery. Furthermore, the approved parking layout required under planning permission 24/00926/VAR has not been implemented, and site observations indicate that the existing on- site parking arrangements are insufficient, resulting in vehicles parking on the adopted highway and increasing hazards to the surrounding road network, particularly during peak times. The proposal as such is contrary to Policy EV12 and Appendix 5 of the Adopted Core Strategy and the Paragraphs 115 and 116 of the National Planning Policy Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
