Great Yarmouth Borough Council

No.	Condition Text
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 the objectives of Policy HOU18 in that, the two-storey extension linking the two dwellings would result in a terracing effect that would significantly detract from the harmonious appearance of the area. The resulting development would be out of character with the street scene which consists of dwellings on spacious plots with reasonable gaps between the houses. Furthermore, if permitted, the proposal would set a precedent for other similar extensions that would seriously erode the character and appearance of the area.
