| 1. | The proposed food sales unit would, by virtue of its size and prominent
positioning, constitute a visually obtrusive feature in the street scene
and would, in view of the nature of its operation and the consequent
emission of cooking smells, cause possible harm to the residential amenity
of nearby property. Furthermore, the positioning of the unit close to the
adjacent highway, coupled with the activity that would be generated, is
likely to result in a situation detrimental to the safety of users of the
proposed facility. The proposal is thus considered to be contrary to the
objectives of Policy TR8 of the Modified Deposit Version of the Borough-
Wide Local Plan. |
