Conditions / Reason for Refusal: |
01
The Council considers that the proposed extension and conversion of the public house to 7 no. units would represent overdevelopment of the site and this leads to restricted outlooks on the western and eastern elevations which would be well below the minimum recommended distance of 12m (as indicated in the SYRDG). This would result in poor living conditions for future occupiers, which would be exacerbated by the lack of any outdoor amenity area. Consequently the conversion is considered to represent an unsatisfactory form of development that has an overdeveloped and cramped layout with poor living conditions in conflict with Local Plan policies CS28 Sustainable Design, SP55 ‘Design Principles’, the provisions of the NPPF and South Yorkshire Residential Design Guide (SYRDG).
POSITIVE AND PROACTIVE STATEMENT
Discussions during the determination of the application have identified that it is not possible to support a scheme of this nature nor would any amendments make it acceptable. It was not considered to be in accordance with the principles of the National Planning Policy Framework and resulted in this refusal.
