Agenda item

25/00258/FUL – Application for the erection of front boundary wall up to 1.84m high and detached outbuilding/store within the front boundary, extension to the west elevation of the existing garden store and installation of an additional first floor window into existing side elevation of dwelling (part retrospective).

In making its decision, the Committee took into consideration the Planning Officer’s report (previously circulated), the results of technical consultation with Highways and that the request to have the application to be determined by the Planning Committee came from a local Councillor. The Committee also took into consideration the views of the Applicant’s Agent.

RESOLVED – That Planning Permission be refused for the following reason:

1.      By virtue of the scale and forwards projection of the outbuilding, the development would result in a poor form of development to the detriment of the character and appearance of the property and street scene and fail to make a positive contribution to the local area. The proposed development would therefore be detrimental to the character and visual amenities of the area, contrary to guidance contained within the National Planning Policy Framework 2024 (paragraph 135) and Local Plan Policy DC1.
