Conditions or Reasons for Planning Application - CB/14/01075/FULL
Conditions or Reasons:
1) The proposed development would, because of its siting, bulk and proximity to the neighbouring boundary appear unduly obtrusive and overbearing to the occupiers of Nos. 7 & 8 Hydrus Drive and result in an unacceptable loss of privacy to the occupiers of No. 7 Hydrus Drive. The proposal is therefore contrary to the principles of good design as set out in national guidance within the National Planning Policy Framework and to Policies BE8 and H8 of the South Bedfordshire Local Plan Review, Policy 43 of the emerging Development Strategy for Central Bedfordshire and the Central Bedfordshire Design Guide.
2) The proposed extension would, because of its size and lack of subservience to the main dwellinghouse, appear unduly dominant and thus inappropriate in design, harmful to the visual amenities of the rear garden environment and of nearby residents. The proposal is therefore contrary to the principles of good design as set out in national guidance within the National Planning Policy Framework and to Policies BE8 and H8 of the South Bedfordshire Local Plan Review, Policy 43 of the emerging Development Strategy for Central Bedfordshire and the Central Bedfordshire Design Guide.
