REASONS
|
1
|
The proposal, due to the change
of use to residential garden, introduction of additional
residential paraphernalia, and the urbanisation effect, would
represent inappropriate development in the Green Belt and would
result in a loss of openness for which no case of very special
circumstances has been advanced to outweigh the identified harm.
The proposal is therefore contrary to policy GB2A of the Local Plan
(1998/2006), policy DM 4 of the Submission Version of the Local
Plan (2017) and the National Planning Policy Framework
(2019).
|
|
2
|
In the absence of a completed
planning obligation, the proposed development fails to mitigate
against the adverse impact that it will have on the Epping Forest
Special Area for Conservation in terms of recreational pressure and
air pollution. Failure to secure such mitigation is contrary to
policies CP1 and CP6 of the adopted Local Plan 1998 & 2006,
Policies DM 2 and DM 22 of the Local Plan Submission Version 2017,
Paragraph 180 of the NPPF 2021, and the requirements of the
Habitats Regulations 2017.

REASONS
|
1
|
The proposed dwelling, by
reason of the siting adjacent to the rear garden boundaries of
properties in Coteford Close, would appear excessively overbearing
and dominant when seen from those gardens and will cause addition
stress on the adjacent Willow Tree and the existing retaining wall.
As such, this would result in an unacceptable degree of harm to the
living conditions of adjoining residents, contrary to policies DBE2
and DBE9 of the adopted Local Plan and Alterations, policies DM 9
and DM 10 of the Local Plan Submission Version (2017), and with the
National Planning Policy Framework.
|
|
2
|
The application does not
provide sufficient information to satisfy the Council, as competent
authority, that the proposed development will not adversely affect
the integrity of the Epping Forest Special Area for Conservation
and there are no alternative solutions or imperative reasons of
overriding public interest why the proposed development should be
permitted. In the absence of such evidence, and of a completed
Section 106 planning obligation to mitigate against the adverse
impact that it will have on the Epping Forest Special Area for
Conservation in terms of recreational pressure and air pollution,
the proposed development is contrary to policies CP1, CP6 and NC1
of the Epping Forest Local Plan (1998) and Alterations (2006),
policies DM 2 and DM 22 of the Epping Forest District Local Plan
Submission Version 2017, Paragraph 180 of the NPPF 2021, and the
requirements of the Habitats Regulations 2017.
