Informative Notes:
1 )Reasons for granting The property is a detached dwelling known as 16 Ivel Gardens in Biggleswade. The proposal consists of the replacement of an existing rear conservatory with a rear extension of the same dimensions with a maximum depth of 3.2m. The extension would have a lean-to roof comprising 4 roof lights. The extension is located at the rear of the property and would not have any detrimental impact on the character and appearance of the street scene. Due to the detached nature of the dwelling, all neighbouring properties are considered sufficiently separated from the proposal for there not to be any material impact upon the residential amenity currently enjoyed by neighbouring occupiers. Biggleswade Town Council, the Tree and Landscape Officer and the Archaeolgy team were consulted and raised no objection. The proposal was also subject to a public and neighbour consultation and no representations were received. Given the siting, design and scale of the proposal it is not considered that the proposal would result in any material impact on the residential amenities of neighbouring properties and would not have a detrimental impact on the character and appearance of the surrounding area. The proposal is therefore considered to be in conformity with Policy HQ1 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan and the Central Bedfordshire Design Guide 2023.Reasons for granting The property is a detached dwelling known as 16 Ivel Gardens in Biggleswade.

4 )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.
