Informative Notes:
1 )Reasons For Granting The property is a semi-detached dwelling located on Golden Riddy in Linslade. The proposal consists of the removal of an existing conservatory and the erection of a new single storey rear extension. The proposal would have the same depth as the existing conservatory (3.1m approx.) with a slight width change from 5.7m on the existing, to 5.9m on the proposed. The existing pitched roof on the conservatory has an eaves height of 2.3m, and a highest point of 3.2m, however the proposed rear extension would have a flat roof measuring 2.7m in height with a roof lantern proposed in the centre to raise the highest point to 3m. The proposal would be modest in scale and located to the rear of the property. Given the siting and design of the proposal it is not considered that it would have a detrimental impact on the character and appearance of the surrounding area. The proposal would see a reduction in height from the existing conservatory, and is considered to be less prominent than the existing. It is noted that the site of the proposal is on an elevated position and the levels of the site have been taking into consideration whilst making this determination. The proposal would be set off the boundary with the adjacent neighbour (14 Golden Riddy), this neighbouring property has previously benefitted from an extension to the rear. Given this existing built form and the separation distance it is not considered that the proposal would have a detrimental impact on the residential amenities of this adjacent neighbour in terms of privacy, light, or overbearing impact. Due to the nature of the application site as a semi-detached dwelling, the proposal is significantly separated from the other adjacent neighbour (10 Golden Riddy), and therefore it is considered that the proposal would not lead to any detrimental impact on the residential amenities of this neighbouring property. All other properties are sufficiently separated from the application site. Leighton-Linslade Town Council were consulted and raised no objection. This application 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 considered that the proposal would not result in any detrimental impact to the residential amenities of neighbouring properties or 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 Section 11 of the Central Bedfordshire Design Guide.Reasons For Granting The property is a semi-detached dwelling located on Golden Riddy in Linslade.

6 )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.
