)Reasons for Granting:
The proposal seeks planning permission for a single storey rear extension with roof lantern.
The application site comprises a two-storey, end-of-terrace dwellinghouse located along Hillary Rise, in Arlesey. The surrounding area is mostly residential in nature, characterised with dwellings of a similar design and appearance. The proposed single storey rear extension would be sited to the rear of the host dwelling and would as such not be readily visible to the public realm. Previously, an application for Prior Approval (CB/25/01322/GPDE) at the site sought a single storey rear extension, with a depth of 4 metres, a height of 3 metres and an eaves height of 2.6 metres. The Council confirmed Prior Approval was not required. This current application seeks a similar rear extension, with a slightly greater width when compared to this previous GPDE application. With consideration of this previous application at the site, together with the modest scale and design of the extension; no detrimental impact upon the character and appearance of the area would be deemed to arise.
As regards neighbouring amenity, the rear extension would be sited adjacent to the boundary with neighbouring dwelling No. 7 Hillary Rise. However, the extension would be appropriately separated from the shared boundary and rear fenestration of No. 7. Due to this separation and the modest scale and design of the proposal, together with consideration of the scale of the extension assessed under the previous GPDE application at the site; there is not deemed to be a detrimental loss of light or overbearing impact to this neighbouring dwelling, which would warrant a reason for the refusal of this application on this basis. Moreover, no windows are sited as to where any detrimental loss of privacy would be considered to arise. All other neighbouring dwellings are deemed to be sufficiently separated and/ or screened from the proposal as to where they would not be detrimentally impacted.
The proposals would not adversely affect the parking or access arrangements at the site and as such the proposal would be acceptable on a like-for-like basis, with regard to highway considerations.
Neighbouring properties and the Town Council have been consulted on this application. The Town Council did not comment and no comments were received in the form of public representations.
Therefore, it is considered that the proposal would be in accordance with Policies HQ1, T2 and T3 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan, Section 11 of the Central Bedfordshire Design Guide, the Parking Standards for New Development SPD, the Arlesey Neighbourhood Plan 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.
