Conditions or Reasons for Planning Application - CB/14/03294/FULL
Conditions or Reasons:
1) The proposed development would result in a replication of the scale of the original dwellinghouse and would fail to provide a level of subservience which would reduce its level of dominance over the host dwellinghouse. Moreover its scale and design would fail to conform with extensions that exist on other similar properties in the locality and would be detrimental to the symmetry and balance of the pair of semi-detached dwellinghouses. Therefore the proposed development would be harmful to the visual amenities of the street scene and of nearby residents and therefore contrary to the principles of good design set out in the National Planning Policy Framework, Policies BE8 & 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 development would make inadequate provision for the parking of cars and would lead to an increase in on-street parking thereby resulting in unacceptable traffic congestion and additional hazards for highway users and the local residents. The proposal is thereby contrary to the National Planning Policy Framework, Policy T10 of the South Bedfordshire Local Plan Review, Policies 27 & 43 of the emerging Development Strategy for Central Bedfordshire and the Central Bedfordshire Design Guide.
