Great Yarmouth Borough Council

No.	Condition Text
1.	The design of the proposed pair of semi-detached houses and proposed location on the plot taking up the entire width of the plot will result in the proposed dwellings extending beyond the rear elevation of the neighbouring dwelling to the west which would be an unneighbourly form of development given the overall scale that would cause overshadowing and loss of light and outlook to that dwelling. The proximity of the first floor windows to the rear of the proposed dwelling providing outlook from the first floor dining room/kitchen would also result in overloolooking and would have significant adverse effects on the amenities of that property. The proposal would therefore be contrary to Policy HOU15 and criteria (A) and (E) of Policy HOU7 of the Great Yarmouth Borough-Wide Local Plan which seek to safeguard the character and form of settlements and protect the amenities of the occupiers of nearby dwellings.
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.
