EPF/0462/24 40 Woburn Avenue Theydon Bois Cm16 7JS PDF 252 KB To consider the attached report for the Single
storey rear and side extension with pitched roof. Pitched roof to
have rooflights. Additional documents: Minutes: Members of the Committee received a presentation from the Planning Officer, representations from an objector, and from Theydon Bois Parish Council. The Committee discussed the merits of the application.
Resolved:
The Committee voted against the officers recommendations to approve the application, for the following reasons:
The proposed single storey side and rear extension by reason of excessive scale, bulk and proximity to the boundaries with no. 38 and no. 42 Woburn Avenue would be have a visually obtrusive and overbearing impact comprising an unneighbourly form of overdevelopment resulting in loss of light and outlook causing harm to the amenity of adjoining occupants. The development is therefore contrary to Policy DM9 of the adopted Local Plan 2023, and the NPPF 2023.
