Decision & conditions
Decision NoticePlanning conditions
- The proposed residential conversion would fail to provide a good standard of residential accommodation to meet with the requirements as specified within Article 2 Part 3 (9A) of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended), which prevents the authorisation of any dwelling that does not comply with the nationally described space standards. Therefore, the proposal fails to meet with the criteria as set out within Schedule 2, Part 3, Class MA of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended) and is not permitted development.
