Conditions or Reasons for Planning Application - CB/20/00427/FULL
Conditions or Reasons:
1) The proposed development represents inappropriate development within the Green Belt, which is, by definition, harmful to the Green Belt. The proposal would be detrimental to the openness and visual amenity of the Green Belt. No matters to be considered as very special circumstances which could be weighed against the harm to the Green Belt have been provided with the application. The proposal is therefore contrary to Section 13 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF).
2) The proposal by virtue of the inadequate light and outlook to habitable rooms would result in a sub-standard form of development that would fail to provide a suitable living environment for future occupiers. The proposal would therefore conflict with the requirements of Policy BE8 of the South Bedfordshire Local Plan Review (2004) and Section 12 of the National Planning Policy Framework.
3) As far as can be determined from the submitted plans, the applicant does not appear to control sufficient land to provide adequate visibility at the point of access. The proposed development would therefore result in an intensification of use of an existing, albeit modified access at a point where visibility is substandard and would lead to conditions of danger and inconvenience to people using it and to highway users in general. The proposal is contrary to the requirements of Section 9 of the National Planning Policy Framework.
