1.Policy HOU19 of the Deposit Version of the Great Yarmouth Borough Wide Local Plan states that extensions and alterations to dwellings will be permitted where the privacy and amenity of neighbours are adequately safeguarded. The extension or alteration must :- (a) Be in keeping with the design of the existing dwelling and the character of the area; (b) Not prejudice the amenities of a neighbouring dwelling ; and (c) not result in overdevelopment of the site's curtilage. The proposal is contrary to the objectives of policy HOU19 in that the proposed extension to form a granny annexe would prejudice the amenities of the occupiers of the nearby residential property by reason of its proximity to the boundary and forward projection in relation to the adjoining dwelling. Moreover, by reason of the excessive size of the extension it is considered that the proposal constitutes an overdevelopment of the curtilage of the dwelling.
2.Back Lane is considered unsuitable to cater for any additional development whatsoever by reason of its restricted carriageway width, poor alignment and lack of adequate passing provision.
3.The development would prejudice conditions of public and highway safety and would be likely to set an undesirable precedent for further similar proposals accessed from Back Lane.
