Conditions or Reasons for Planning Application - SB/08/00597
Conditions or Reasons:
1) The site lies within the South Bedfordshire Green Belt and the proposed extensions 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 the advice contained within Planning Policy Guidance Note 2 'Green Belts' and Policy H13 of the South Bedfordshire Local Plan Review.
2) The proposed development would, because of its size, bulk, siting and unsympathetic design, appear unduly obtrusive and overbearing and result in an unacceptable overshadowing of the adjoining property. 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 to Policies BE8 and H8 of the South Bedfordshire Local Plan Review.
