| 1. | Policy HOU18 of the Great Yarmouth Borough-Wide Local Plan states that extensions and alterations to dwellings will be permitted where the amenity of neighbours is adequately safeguarded and the character of the area is not adversely affected. The extension or alteration must :-(i) Be in keeping with the design of the existing dwelling and the character of the area; (ii) Not prejudice the amenities of a neighbouring dwelling and (iii) Not result in over-development of the site's curtilage. The proposal is contrary to criterion (i) of this Policy in that the car port would, by virtue of the degree of forward projection from the existing dwelling, represent an obtrusive and discordant feature in the street scene and would be out of character with the design of the dwelling. The car port would also be contrary to criterion (ii) in that its close proximity to the side boundary of the plot would have an adverse effect on the neighbouring dwelling by reason of overshadowing and loss of visual amenity. |
