Decision & conditions
Signed_Decision_Notice.pdfPlanning conditions
- The proposed first floor side / roof addition by raising the eaves of the roof and increasing the height of the western flank elevation, would extend the application dwelling in an manner that would be detrimental and unsympathetic to its establishes character, as it would alter the roof form from an irregular catslide hip to a regular hip. This would also result in the unbalancing of the semi-detached building block that it forms part of, and would therefore present as a poorly designed, incongruous addition that would appear incongruous would viewed within the context of the surrounding street-scene, which is largely characterised by pairs of matching / near symetrical semi-detached dwellings. As such, it would be contrary to the provisions of the National Planning Policy Framework (2024), Core Policy 8 of Slough Core Strategy 2006 -2026 (2008), Policies H15, EN1 and EN2 of Slough Local Plan (2004) and Slough Residential Extension Guidelines Supplementary Planning Document (2010) in particular Policies DP1, DP2, DP3, EX12, EX13 and EX33.
- The proposed outbuilding extension, by virtue of its contribution towards the resultant overall bulk, massing and general size of the resulting structure would fail to appear visually subordinate to the host dwelling and would instead result in a disproportionately scaled cramped and contrived form of development that would have a detrimental impact upon the overall character and appearance of the application property and would be unsympathetic to the development pattern of the area. As such, the proposals are contrary to EX38 and EX39 of the Residential Extensions Guidelines SPD (2010), Saved Policies EN1, EN2 and H15 of the Slough Local Plan (2008), and Core Policy 8 of the Slough Core Strategy (2008).
- It is the view of the Local Planning Authority that the proposed development does not improve the economic, social and environmental conditions of the area for the reasons given in this notice and it is not in accordance with the National Planning Policy Framework.
