Conditions or Reasons for Planning Application - CB/15/02592/FULL
Conditions or Reasons:
1) The proposed development of the erection of two bungalows would by reason of its siting to the rear of the strong building line of Dunstable Road appear incongruous and cramped, out of character with the existing uniform grain of development and with adjoining dwellings in the locality. The cramped layout is exacerbated by the limited plot size and the topography of the land and thereby would be harmful to the visual amenities of the area and of nearby residents. The proposal is therefore contrary to the principles of good design set out in the National Planning Policy Framework, Policies BE8 & H2 of the South Bedfordshire Local Plan Review, Policy 43 of the emerging Development Strategy for Central Bedfordshire and the Central Bedfordshire: A Guide for Development (Sept 2014).
2) The proposed development at plot 1 would, because of its size, siting and orientation result in a loss of light, overshadowing and overbearing impact to the occupiers of the adjoining property of 6 Holly Farm Close. The proposal is therefore contrary to the principles of good design set out in Policy BE8 of the South Bedfordshire Local Plan Review, Policy 43 of the emerging Development Strategy for Central Bedfordshire, the National Planning Policy Framework and the Central Bedfordshire: A Guide for Development (Sept 2014).
