| 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 considered to be contrary to criteria (ii) of Policy HOU18 as it creates an intrusive form of development which will have a detrimental effect on the residential amenity of the neighbouring property, with a significant increase in overshadowing and an overbearing visual aspect for the occupants, resulting in an erosion of the enjoyment of the use of the garden. |
| 2. | STATEMENT OF POSITIVE ENGAGEMENT : In accordance with the NPPF, in determining this application for planning permission the Borough Council has approached it in a positive and proactive way and where possible has sought solutions to problems to achieve the aim of approving sustainable development. Unfortunately, despite this, in this particular case the development is not considered to represent sustainable development and has been refused for the reasons set out above. |
