Informative Notes:
1 )Reasons for Granting: The application site is a two-storey terraced dwelling located along Brookvale in Upper Stondon. A detached garage is located directly opposite the rear of the dwelling, across a shared private access road. The proposal consists of the erection of a single storey conservatory to the rear of the dwelling. This would measure 3.3 meters in width, 3.6 meters in depth, would have a glass roof with a ridge height of 3 meters and 1.9 metres to the eaves. The surrounding terrace of properties are of a similar appearance to their front elevations. The rear elevations are characterised by a mixed pattern of built form. The proposed conservatory would be located to the rear of the property and would remain modest in nature and would not be readily visible within the streetscene. Therefore, it would not be deemed to have any detrimental impact on the character and appearance of the area. The proposal would be set off the boundary with the two adjacent neighbours, Nos.1 and 3 Brookvale. Although the proposal would extend beyond the built form of these neighbouring dwellings, the proposal is modest is size and not considered to have a detrimental impact on the residential amenities of these neighbouring properties. All other neighbouring dwellings are sufficiently separated and/or screened from the proposal and would therefore not be detrimentally impacted. The proposal would not adversely affect the existing parking or access arrangements at the application site and would therefore be acceptable on a like-for-like basis. Stondon Parish Council were consulted on this application and raised no comments. The Ecology team were also consulted and raised no objection to the proposal. The application was subject to public consultation and no representations were received. The proposal is therefore considered to be in accordance with Policies HQ1, T2 and T3 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan, Section 11 of Central Bedfordshire Design Guide, Parking Standards for New Developments SPD and Section 12 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF).Reasons for Granting: The application site is a two-storey terraced dwelling located along Brookvale in Upper Stondon.

5 )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.
