1.Policy HOU15 and criterion E of Policy HOU7 of the Great Yarmouth Borough-Wide Local Plan permit the formation or erection of dwellings providing the proposal does not have an adverse effect on the amenities of the occupiers of adjoining dwellings. This proposal is contrary to the objectives of those Policies in that the height and length of the proposed two storey extension and its proximity to the boundary with the adjoining dwelling would be an unneighbourly form of development that would result in overshadowing and loss of light to the immediate neighbour. The extension would also have an overbearing and dominating effect on the outlook from that property and other nearby dwellings.
2.STATEMENT OF POSITIVE ENGAGEMENT (REFUSALS): 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 a sustainable or acceptable form of development and has been refused for the reasons set out above.
