| 1. | The proposal fails to meet the requirements of paragraph MA.2(a) of Class MA, Part 3, Schedule 2 of the GPDO 2015 (as amended), due to inadequate information on car parking, inadequate waste management strategy, not providing adequate servicing arrangements; poor cycle storage, and unsafe access to the first floor units. It conflicts with Policies 26, 34, and 35 of the Local Plan 2021, Policies T5 and T6 of the London Plan 2021, and the Housing Design Standards LPG 2023. Given the location of the site, a car free scheme could be acceptable, however, there is no legal undertaking for future occupiers of the site to be excluded from applying for over-subscribed residential parking zone. In the absence of legal agreement to exempt the future occupiers of the site from residential parking zone and together with the lack of relevant information, it is considered that the proposal would have an adverse impact upon the free flow of traffic and the safety of highway condition, hence prior approval is refused. |
| 2. | In the absence of a daylight and sunlight report to demonstrate otherwise, it is judged that flat 2 would fail to meet the criteria set in paragraph MA.2. (f) under Class MA of Part 3 to Schedule 2 of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended) with respect to the provision of adequate natural light in all habitable rooms of the dwellinghouses and it is considered that the proposed development would result in poor living conditions and amenity for future occupants due to the insufficient provision of natural light to habitable rooms, contrary to policy 7 of the Local Plan 2021, hence prior approval is refused. |
| 3. | There is insufficient information regarding the impact of noise from neighbouring licensed premises and late night/early hour uses on the future occupiers of the flats. The applicant failed to demonstrate that noise from late night/early hours opening uses is likely to significantly affect the amenity of future occupiers of the flats and whether the impacts on the proposed flats within the subject building would be capable of being mitigated to the satisfaction of the Local Planning Authority and as required by MA.2. (2)(d). Consequently, under the provisions of Schedule 2, Part 3, Class MA of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2021 (as amended), the prior approval of the Local Planning Authority is refused. |
