| Conditions / Reason for Refusal: |
01
The proposed rear extension, due to its rear projection and location along the shared boundary will have a significant impact on the residential amenity of the adjoining occupiers at No. 22 Eastwood Avenue in terms of overbearing impact. The proposal is thereby contrary to the NPPF, policies CS28 ‘Sustainable Design’ and SP55 ‘Design Principles’ of the Local Plan and the adopted Supplementary Planning Document - ‘Householder Design Guide’.
POSITIVE AND PROACTIVE STATEMENT
The applicant did not enter into any pre application discussions with the Local Planning Authority. Whilst discussions during the determination of the application have identified a possible acceptable alternative to this proposal, the applicant has been unwilling to amend the scheme. This was not considered to be in accordance with the principles of the National Planning Policy Framework and resulted in this refusal.
