| 1. | The erection of five dwellings on this site would lead to a cramped form of development which would be out of keeping with the density of the surrounding area. This proposal would result in the over-development of this site. In particular, the positioning of plot 5 is out of keeping with the built form of both Crab Lane and Parkland Drive and would be out of keeping with the wider development pattern. The spread and scale of the development would be out of character with the surrounding area and would therefore be contrary to saved policy HOU07 A and with saved policy HOU17 from the Borough-Wide Local Plan. |
| 2. | The inclusion of three bungalows to the rear of the plot would result in the over-development of the site. The resulting impact of this would be increased levels of noise disturbance from vehicle movements to the rear gardens of properties on Headington Close due to the proximity of the hard standing. This is therefore contrary to saved policy HOU07 E from the Borough-Wide Local Plan and with core policy CS09 F. |
| 3. | The Arboricultural Impact Assessment provided as part of this application is inaccurate and references 6 dwellings. Consequently, the Local Planning Authority is unable to fully assess the impact on the protected trees. It is considered that the application is contrary to core policy CS09 G from the adopted Core Strategy. |
| 4. | 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. |
