| Conditions / Reason for Refusal: |
01
The first floor balcony to the side and front elevation and car port and pergola to the front, by reason of their appearance, materials and scale within this prominent location are out of character, visually prominent and materially detrimental to the appearance of the host property and the visual amenities of the street scene. The proposal is therefore contrary to Local Plan Policies CS28 ‘Sustainable Development’ and SP55 ‘Design Principles’, as well as the Council’s SPD ‘Householder Design Guide’ and the guidance in the National Planning Policy Framework and the National Planning Practice Guidance
Informative
