Conditions or Reasons for Planning Application - SB/07/01160
Conditions or Reasons:
1) The site lies within the South Bedfordshire Green Belt and the proposed extension would, taken together with the previous extensions to this property, result in a dwelling extended to a cumulatively disproportionate degree having regard to the level of restraint appropriate within the Green Belt. The proposal therefore represents inappropriate development, harmful to the openness of the Green Belt, and contrary to national advice contained within Planning Policy Guidance Note 2: Green Belts and Policy H13 of the South Bedfordshire Local Plan Review.
2) The proposed extension and flat roofed dormer window would, by virtue of their size, scale, bulk and siting, create an unduly prominent development that would have a harmful affect on the character and appearance of the locality. The proposal is therefore contrary to the principles of good design as set out in national guidance within Planning Policy Statement 1: Delivering Sustainable Development and Policies BE8 and H8 of the South Bedfordshire Local Plan Review.
