RESOLVED:
That planning application 13/AP/0277 be refused on the grounds that:
1. The proposal by reason of the flue location in close proximity to residential windows and gardens, would result in noise and smells. Additionally, the proposal would exacerbate the existing litter problem, be detrimental to visual and residential amenity and would increase traffic, pollution and waste. It would therefore be contrary to Strategic Policy 13 of the Core Strategy (“High Environmental Standards) and saved Southwark Plan Policies 2007 1.10 (part i) “Small scale shops and services outside the town and local centres and protected shopping frontages,” and policy 3.2 “Protection of amenity”.
2. The proposed A5 use would be contrary to the aspirations of the Council to promote a healthy lifestyle to residents, given its proximity to the Harris Academy and the existence of other take-aways in close proximity. The proposal is, therefore, seen as contrary to the Strategic Objective 1C Be Healthy and Active within the Core Strategy 2011.
