Conditions or Reasons for Planning Application - CB/15/03281/FULL
Conditions or Reasons:
1) The application site is too restricted in size for the proposed development which would appear cramped in relation to adjoining buildings and out of character with the surrounding area. The proposal is therefore contrary to the principles of good design set out in the National Planning Policy Framework, Policies BE8 and H2 of the South Bedfordshire Local Plan Review and the Central Bedfordshire Design Guide.
2) The proposed new dwelling would, because of its size, bulk and siting, appear unacceptably obtrusive and overbearing from the rear windows and rear garden of No. 42 Kingsbury Avenue. The proposal is therefore contrary to the principles of good design as set out in the National Planning Policy Framework, Policies BE8 and H2 of the South Bedfordshire Local Plan Review and the Central Bedfordshire Design Guide.
3) The garden space proposed for the existing and additional dwelling would not be in compliance with the Internal & External Space Standards, Central Bedfordshire Design Guide Revision, March 2014 and would lead to unacceptable amenity space to the detriment of the quality of living accommodation for current and future residents and out of character to the locality where there are generous garden spaces in excess of 60 square metres. It is therefore considered that the development would be contrary to the principles of good design as set out within the National Planning Policy Framework, Policies BE8 and H2 of the South Bedfordshire Local Plan Review and the Central Bedfordshire Design Guide.
