Decision & conditions

Decision Notice
Planning conditions
  1. Time Limit The development to which this permission relates must be begun not later than the expiration of three years beginning with the date on which this permission is granted. Reason: The time limit condition is imposed in order to comply with the requirements of Section 91 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990.
  2. Approved Plans The development hereby approved shall be carried out in strict accordance with the following plans and specifications. - Site Location Plan (26 June 2024) - Proposed Site Layout (AD8452 Rev P1) - Proposed Floor Plan (AD8460 Rev P1) Reason: To ensure a satisfactory form of development and for the avoidance of doubt.
  3. Hours of Opening The drinking establishment hereby approved shall not be open for customers outside the following hours: Monday - Closed (except bank holidays refer to Sunday) Tuesday - Closed Wednesday - 15:00 to 22:00 Thursday - 15:00 to 22:00 Friday - 15:00 to 23:00 Saturday - 12:00 to 23:00 Sunday - 12:00 to 20:00 (except bank holiday weekends refer to Saturday) Reason: In the interests of amenity of nearby residents having regard for policy DC1 of the Local Plan and section 12 of the NPPF.
  4. Deliveries and Collections Deliveries and collections to the premises shall be kept to between the hours of 08:00 and 19:00 Monday to Saturday, and 09:30 to 18:30 on Sunday. Reason: In the interests of safeguarding the residential amenities of nearby properties.
  5. Refuse Store Collections from the refuse store shall be kept to between the hours of 08:00 and 19:00 Monday to Saturday, and 09:30 to 18:30 on Sunday. Reason: In the interests of safeguarding the residential amenities of nearby properties.
  6. REASON FOR APPROVAL This application is satisfactory in that the drinking establishment use (sui generis) generally accords with the principles of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) and the local policy requirements (Policy H1, DC1, CS4 and CS13 of the Council's Local Development Framework). Where appropriate, the Council has worked with the applicant in a positive and proactive way in line with the NPPF (2019). In particular, the drinking establishment use will not prejudice the character and function of the area and, although fails the sequential approach, is not considered harmful to Middlesbrough Town Centre or any other recognised local centres. The drinking establishment use will not conflict with the existing uses of this location and it will not be detrimental to any adjoining or surrounding properties. The traffic generated, car parking and noise associated with the change of use will not be of a level likely to result in an unacceptable impact on nearby premises. The application is therefore considered to be an acceptable form of development, fully in accordance with the relevant policy guidance and there are no material considerations, which would indicate that the development should be refused.
