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 addition of a substantial two-storey extension close to both boundaries of the property, together with the insertion of a window in the gable of the existing house close to the boundary with the adjoining property would be an unneighbourly form of development which would be exacerbated on the south eastern side by the application site being at a higher level than the property by reason of overshadowing, overlooking and loss of visual amenity, contrary to criteria (ii) of the Policy.
