1.The proposal is considered by the local planning authority to be contrary to Policy H1 criteria b) in particular of the Broads Local Plan 1997 which states: NEW DWELLINGS WITHIN THE DEVELOPMENT BOUNDARIES Within the development boundaries, as defined on the Proposals Map Insets, residential development will be permitted provided it: a) is on an infill site or a small site; and b) would not be detrimental to the form and character of the settlement and would be of an appropriate scale and design for its setting in accordance with Policy B11; and c) protects open space of amenity value in accordance with Policy C12 and would not detract from frontages which contrubite to the character of the settlement; and d) would provide an adequate standard of residential amenity for future occupiers and would not have a significant adverse effect on the residential amenities of adjoining occupiers. in that the siting of the dwellings to the rear of the dwellings previously approved on the ste consitutes backland development which in this location, would be totally out of character with the linear form of the settlement.
2.The proposal is considered by the local planning authority to be contrary to Policy H2 of the Broads Local Plan 1997 which aims to restrict any new residential devlopment outside the defined development boundaries.The domestication of land outside the development boundary particulary in this location , closer to Filby Broad is undesirable and one that could seriously compromise the existing -slightly remote- relationship between the Broad and the village and could set a precedent for further development of a similar nature.
3.The proposal is considered contrary to Policy B11 of the Broads Local 1997 which states: Development will only be permitted if its scale, form, design, external materials and colour would be appropriate to its setting. New development in the built environment should respect the character and townscape of the area. New development in the countryside should be appropriately located so as to minimise its visual intrusion in the landscape. The proposed dwellings, although simple in form and modest in scale, would contribute little to the character of the area being of poor detail,design and appearance.In addition no indication is given of the ground floor level and finished floor levels on the plans showing a linkage between the Flood Risk Assessment to assess the full extent of the impact of the dwellings.
