Decision & conditions
20260918T124519.04312DRDN.pdfPlanning conditions
- The proposal is found contrary to permitted development criteria, by virtue of Schedule 2 Article 3, Part 1, Class A section (g) (ii) of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 2015. (as amended) The maximum roof height as submitted on the application form & the submitted drawing differ in dimensions. The maximum height including the roof lantern is measured to be 4.35 metres from its garden level as compare 4 metres which is permitted in the above section of the legislation, as specified above.
- The Local Planning Authority considers that the impact of the proposed development on the amenity of 11, Draycot Road, would be unacceptable because it causes harm of significant importance, in terms of adverse outlook to the amenities of the adjacent occupants and therefore, prior approval is required, and the application is refused for the above stated reasons.
