Conditions or Reasons for Planning Application - SB/08/00360
Conditions or Reasons:
1) The site lies within the South Bedfordshire Green Belt whereby the proposal, if permitted and constructed together with the extensions to the dwelling which have the benefit of planning permission, would result in the dwelling being 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 to Policy H13 of the South Bedfordshire Local Plan Review.
2) The proposed development would, because of the positioning of the proposed side facing dormer and rooflights result in an unacceptable degree of overlooking and loss of privacy to the detriment of the residential amenities of the occupiers of adjacent properties. The proposal is therefore contrary to the principles of good design as set out in Planning Policy Statement 1: 'Delivering Sustainable Development', and Policies H8 and BE8 of the South Bedfordshire Local Plan Review.
