)Reasons for Granting:
The proposal seeks planning permission to replace the existing flat roof frontage with a pitched roof.
The application site comprises a two-storey, detached dwellinghouse located along High Street, in Langford. The existing dwelling is constructed of brickwork, and benefits from a single storey extension/projection to the principal elevation with a flat roof. The proposal would seek to replace this flat roof with a pitched roof, and finish the elevations with smooth render. Due to the minor scale of the works and the varied use of materials within the streetscene, the proposal would not result in any detrimental impact on the character and appearance of the area.
The proposal would be separated from neighbouring dwelling No. 10 High Street by at least some 2.8 metres, and from No. 2A High Street by some 6 metres (approx.). Due to this separation and the minor scale, design and nature of the works, the proposal would not result in any detrimental impact on the residential amenity of occupants of these neighbouring dwellings. All other neighbouring dwellings are sufficiently separated or screened from the proposal, and would not be detrimentally impacted.
The proposals would not affect the existing parking or access arrangements at the site and would therefore be acceptable on a 'like-for-like' basis.
Neighbouring properties and the Parish Council have been consulted on this application. However, no comments/ representations were received.
Therefore, it is considered that the proposal would be in accordance with Policies HQ1, T2 and T3 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan, the Central Bedfordshire Design Guide, the Parking Standards for New Development SPD and Section 12 of the NPPF.Reasons for Granting:

)Will a new extension affect your Council Tax Charge?
The rate of Council Tax you pay depends on which valuation band your home is placed in. This is determined by the market value of your home as at 1 April 1991.
Your property's Council Tax band may change if the property is extended. The Council Tax band will only change when a relevant transaction takes place. For example, if you sell your property after extending it, the new owner may have to pay a higher band of Council Tax.
If however you add an annexe to your property, the Valuation Office Agency may decide that the annexe should be banded separately for Council Tax. If this happens, you will have to start paying Council Tax for the annexe as soon as it is completed. If the annexe is occupied by a relative of the residents of the main dwelling, it may qualify for a Council Tax discount or exemption. Contact the Council for advice on 0300 300 8306.
