| 1. | Policy HOU23 of the Great Yarmouth Borough Wide Local Plan states that the conversion or change of use of properties into flats or other types of multi-occupied units of residential accommodation will be permitted subject to a number of criteria. This proposal is considered to be contrary to (B) and (E) of policy HOU23 given the over intense use of the site and the residential property directly adjacent. The over intense use of the site would have a significant adverse effect on the residential amenities of other nearby residents and the character of the area contrary to policy HOU7 (E) and HOU23 (B) of the Borough Wide Local Plan. |
| 2. | Policy CS1(a) of the Core Strategy states that new development should be of a scale that compliments the character of the local area. The change of use of this property, with the potential for a high number of occupants, is out of character and scale with the area and will have a detrimental effect on the areas character and amenities contrary to CS1(a) and HOU7 and HOU23 of the Great Yarmouth Borough Wide Local Plan. The substandard quality of accommodation being applied for is contrary to the aims of local planning policy and the National Planning Policy Framework as inadequate living accommodation does not provide for healthy lifestyle or takes into account the need for high quality design and layout. |
| 3. | The proposal does not provide sufficient information with regard to the provision of refuse disposal arrangements or where such facilities can be provided for a development of this scale given the uncertainty of access to and rights over the rear curtilage given the single residential unit of accommodation identified on the submitted plans and the information provided contrary to HOU23 (F) of the adopted Great Yarmouth Borough Wide Local Plan. |
| 4. | 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 or an acceptable form of development and has been refused for the reasons set out above.
