| 1. | Policy HOU18 of the adopted Great Yarmouth Borough-Wide Local Plan states that extensions and alterations to dwellings will be permitted where the proposal:
(i) is in keeping with the design of the existing dwelling and the character of the area;
(ii) would not significantly affect the amenities of any neighbouring dwelling; and,
(iii) would not result in over-development of the site.
The proposal is contrary to this policy in that the rear extension would, by virtue of its height, depth and bulk, and relationship to the adjacent dwellings, constitute an unneighbourly form of development which would have an overbearing and oppressive effect on the outlook from those properties, as well as resulting in an appreciable loss of daylight and sunlight for the occupiers thereof. |
