1.The development hereby permitted is considered to be contrary to the provisions of policy HOU20 of the adopted Great Yarmouth Borough Wide Local Plan in that the proposed replacement dwelling is in excess of the 10% size increase allowed under policy HOU20 and the design is not considered similar or an improvement to the existing dwelling. Therefore the development is considered contrary to criterion (B), (C) and (D) of the above-mentioned policy HOU20.
2.The application is also contrary to policy NNV2 of the adopted Borough Wide Local Plan as the design and scale is considered detrimental to the landscape and the existing property to be removed is considered a positive feature of the landscape.
3.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 sustainable or an acceptable form of development and has been refused for the reasons set out above.
