| 1. | Due to the number of units proposed, the proposal would not provide a high quality form of accommodation, with maisonettes 2 and 3 being cramped units with insufficient levels of outlook and living space which contributes to an oppressive living environment for future residents and one which does not provide for a high standard of amenity in order to ensure suitable living environments. Moreover, the limited amount of outdoor amenity space which is proposed to be shared between the three units would be dominated by the external staircase and bin storage areas which would make this area relatively unpleasant and adds to the poor provision of amenity for the maisonettes. The application would therefore fail to comply with Core Strategy (2015) Policy CS9 and Local Plan Part 2 (2021) Policy A1 and with Paragraph 135 F of the NPPF (December 2023). |
| 2. | The proposal has failed to address the public open space requirements of the development, whether by on-site provision or through means to secure financial contributions towards off-site provision. As such, the impacts of the development and the pressures the development places on public open spaces have not been mitigated, which is considered unacceptable for development in a part of the Borough where there is an identified deficit of public open space, causing residential development to lack the appropriate facilities required in the vicinity. The proposal is, therefore, contrary to Great Yarmouth Local Plan Core Strategy (2015) Policies CS14 and CS15 and Policies GSP8 and H4 of the Great Yarmouth Local Plan Part 2 (2021). |
| 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. |
