Why it was refused

- Insufficient information has been provided to demonstrate that the proposed amendment to the wording of Conditions 3b and 11 of planning permission ref: PA/24/00733, dated 29 May 2025, to permit Saturday working hours, would not adversly impact the amentiy of neighbouring occupiers, contrary to Local Plan policy D.DH8. Furthermore, the application submission does not demonstrate that the approved construction hours would prevent delivery of the development, nor why the Section 61 process would be unsuitable. As such, the proposed changes are not considered to be non-material and cannot be approved under Section 96A of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended). If you require any further information please contact the officer named at the top of this letter.
