REASONS FOR REFUSAL
The proposed increase in the
height of the dwellings to allow the use of the roof space as an
additional room would result in an increase in the bulk and massing of the development and result in
a significant intensification of the usage of this small site which
provides a poor level of amenity space for the 9 houses already
approved. It will therefore result in a cramped and over dense form of
development on this site and as such is contrary to policies CP1,
CP2, CP3, CP 7, DBE1 and DBE3 of the Adopted Local Plan and
Alterations 2006 and SP3, H1, DM9 and DM 10 of the Local Plan
Submission Version and the NPPF.
Members had serious concerns that this scheme would result in
significant harm to the site and immediate area due to the increase
in rooms which would result in a cramped and over densified form of
development.
