| Conditions / Reason for Refusal: |
01
The Council considers that the proposed extensions by virtue of their size, position and design would be out of keeping with the host dwelling creating an awkward design which would be overdominant in the streetscene and out of character with the area. 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’.
02
It is further considered that the proposed extensions would have an adverse impact on the residential amenity of adjacent occupiers by way of overbearing impact, loss of light and increased overlooking. 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. It is not possible to support a scheme of this nature and no amendments have been identified at this time to 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.
