8. Reason for Approval This application is satisfactory in that the design of the proposedcommunity building accords with the principles of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) and, where appropriate, the Council has worked with the applicant in a positive and proactive way in line with the NPPF. In addition the community building accords with the local policy requirements (Policies CS4, CS5, CS17, CS18, CS19, DC1.E7, REG7 and REG37of the Council's Local Development Framework). In particular the community building is designed so that its appearance is complementary to the existing site and so that it will not have a detrimental impact on the amenity of any adjoining or nearby resident. The community building will not prejudice the character and appearance of the area and will not significantly affect any landscaping nor prevent adequate and safe access to the site. The application is therefore considered to be an acceptable form of development, fully in accordance with the relevant policy guidance and there are no material considerations which would indicate that the development should be refused.
