)Reasons For Granting,
The property is a semi-detached single storey dwelling located on a corner plot between Station Road and Millfield Close in Flitwick. The proposal consists of the removal of an existing conservatory and the erection of a single storey rear extension. The proposal would measure a width of 6.4m, a depth of 3.5m and would contain a flat roof with a height of 2.75m.
The proposal would be located to the rear elevation, and thus would not be visible to the streetscene of Station Road or Millfield Close. Therefore, it is not considered that the proposal would lead to any detrimental impacts on the character and appearance of the surrounding streetscene.
The proposed extension would be built to the boundary with the attached neighbour (106 Station Road). However it is noted that this adjacent neighbour has previously benefited from a single storey rear extension, which this proposal would be built marginally forward of, therefore, due to the built form of this adjacent neighbour, the proposal would not lead to any loss of light, loss of privacy or overbearing impacts on this property.
Due to the nature of the proposal as a corner plot, the other adjacent neighbour (102 Station Road) is separated from the application site by the public highway of Millfield Close.
All other properties are considered sufficiently separated from the application site for there to be any material impact.
The proposal would not lead to any additional bedrooms, and thus would not impact the current parking provision on the application site. Therefore, the proposal would be in conformity with Policies T2 and T3 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan.
Flitwick Town Council were consulted on this application and raised no comment. This application was also subject to a public and neighbour consultation and no representations were raised.
Given the siting, design and scale of the proposal it is considered that this application would not lead to any detrimental impacts on the character and appearance of the surrounding area, and would not impact the residential amenities of neighbouring properties. Therefore, the proposal would be in conformity with Policy HQ1 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan and the Central Bedfordshire Design Guide.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.
