Applicant: G Steptoe

Agent: Mr Colin Stone of Stone Me Ltd

Resolved:- That planning permission be REFUSED for the following reason:

1. The proposed development by reason of scale, bulky appearance and design fails to integrate with the existing dwelling or respect the context of the site in relation to the wider area.  As a result, the proposal would appear as an unduly prominent and discordant building, out of keeping with adjacent dwellings and the wider streetscene and results in overdevelopment of the site. The proposal is therefore unacceptable and contrary to the National Planning Policy Framework (2021), Core Strategy (2007) Policies KP1, KP2 and CP4, Development Management Document (2015) Policies DM1 and DM3 and the advice contained with the Design and Townscape Guide (2009).
