| 1. | The application site is located outside the both the adopted and proposed village development limits and seeks the erection of one dwelling; consequently, the application is contrary to saved policy HOU07 from the Borough-Wide Local Plan and Core Policy CS02 (a) from the adopted Core Strategy and GSP1 from the emerging Local Plan Part 2. Justification has not been given that the proposal should be assessed against saved policy HOU10 from the Borough-Wide Local Plan (or emerging policy H5) and furthermore the application does not meet the criteria required to be assessed a a rural workers dwelling. |
| 2. | The proposal would extend the line of development further along the private drive (Ambrose Road) resulting in the further intrusion into the countryside, contrary to the prevailing linear form of this part of Caister, conflicting with the aims of Core Policy CS09 A and G. Moreover, given the large curtilage of the plot, the resulting form of development would be of a density out of keeping with the character of the surrounding area, contrary to HOU07 A, HOU17 and CS09 A. |
| 3. | The site is located witihin Flood Zone 3 and therefore at high risk of flooding. Core Policy CS13 and emerging policy E1 requires that applications within flood zones 2 and 3 should be supported by a sequential test which is constant with the approach of NPPF Paragraph 162, which states "Development should not be allocated or permitted if there are reasonably available sites appropriate for the proposed development in areas with a lower risk of flooding...The sequential approach should be used in areas known to be at risk now or in the future from any form of flooding". No sequential test has been submitted as part of the application to identify and discount alternative sites for the development. As such, the proposal is contrary to Core Policy CS13 and emerging policy E1 and contrary to the approach of NPPF Paragraph 162. |
| 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. |
