| 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) and (iii) 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, resulting in an unacceptable loss of natural light to the dwelling and an overbearing visual aspect for the occupants. |
| 2. | STATEMENT OF POSITIVE ENGAGEMENT:- In determining this planning application the Borough Council has approached it in a positive and proactive way in accordance with the National Planning Policy Framework and where possible has sought solutions to problems to achieve the aim of approving sustainable development. Unfortunately, in this particular case, the proposal is not considered to represent an acceptable form of development and has been refused for the reasons given above. |
