Conditions or Reasons for Planning Application - SB/08/00761
Conditions or Reasons:
1) The proposed development by virtue of its siting, general design and proposed appearance, would appear as an incongruous and unduly prominent feature within the streetscene and as such have an adverse affect on the character and appearance of the streetscene in a prominent corner location. The proposal is therefore contrary to the principles of good design set out in national guidance within Planning Policy Statement 1 "Delivering Sustainable Development", Planning Policy Statement 3 "Housing" and Policies H2 and BE8 of the South Bedfordshire Local Plan Review.
2) The proposed development, because of its size, bulk, and siting, would have an unduly overbearing impact on the adjacent property, number 32 Buttercup Close, detrimental to the residential amenity of the occupiers. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policies H2 and BE8 of the South Bedfordshire Local Plan Review.
3) The proposed development would make inadequate provision for the parking of cars to the existing house and would lead to an increase in on-street parking thereby resulting in unacceptable traffic congestion and additional hazards for highway users and contrary to Policy H2 of the South Bedfordshire Local Plan Review.
