Description of application - Erection of a detached, two storey four bedroom house with off-street parking.

It was reported that further objections to the application had been received and circulated to Members.

Councillor Nicky Dykes referred to the history of this untidy site and in her view the proposed development  was out of character with the locality, an over development of the site and there would be a separation issue with the adjoining property.

Members having considered the report and objections, RESOLVED that PERMISSION BE REFUSED for the following reasons:-

1.  The proposal would constitute an overdevelopment of the site by reason of the amount of site coverage by buildings and hard surfaces, thus would be out of character with the surrounding residential properties with significant rear gardens and contrary to Policies H7 and BE1 of the Unitary Development Plan and Policy 3.5 of the London Plan.

2.  The proposal would be an overdevelopment of the site, out of character with the locality thereby detrimental to its visual amenities and character, contrary to Policies H7 and BE1 of the Unitary Development Plan and Policy 3.5 of the London Plan.
