| 1. | The proposed change of use is considered to be unacceptable by virtue of the detrimental impact it would have on the amenities of local residents due to the close proximity of the surrounding properties. Barking dogs generate a high level of noise disturbance and this, in conjunction with additional traffic movements associated with the operation of the business, would create a significant disturbance to these residents. It is also considered that the noise would be further exacerbated by virtue of the insufficient sound insulation properties of the building..
In addition it is considered that despite the measures put forward by the applicant to limit the number of dogs at the site at any one time given the rural nature of the site with low ambient noise levels, the impact of the noise generated from the use would be highly audible and therefore detrimental to the amenities of nearby residents. |
| 2. | Additionally, whilst information has been provided of similar types of operation in the locality this does not demonstrate sufficient justification to the Local Planning Authority that the need for the proposed development could not be met within adjacent commercial centres, such as Gorleston or larger villages where commercial activities could be accommodated. |
| 3. | The private access track serving the site is considered to be inadequate to serve the development proposed by reason of its restricted width, poor condition, and its severely restricted levels of visibility at its junction with the U61825 - Hobland Road. The proposal if permitted, would be likely to give rise to conditions detrimental to highway safety. Contrary to Local Plan Policy TCM13. |
| 4. | Therefore for the reasons given above the proposed change of use of the building is contrary to the provisions of the Great Yarmouth borough-wide Local Plan and, in particular, policies EMP17, EMP18, EMP19 and TCM13. |
