REASONS FOR REFUSAL
Application No. 95/1464

1. The environment around the building is of an industrial nature which can give rise to noise and smells; the site is thus unsuitable for general office use unconnected with these industrial uses; in any case, offices should be located in the central areas of the towns and villages unless the office use is location-dependent.
