| 1. | The Sunlight and Daylight Assessment relies on the provision of the external works to provide new door/window openings and rooflights, which cannot be considered as part of this application as they are not permitted development. As such, the conclusions of the Assessment can be relied upon, as there is no guarantee that these openings and rooflights will be provided and the development will be carried out as per the assessment. Consequently it has not been sufficiently demonstrated that acceptable provision is made in respect of adequate natural light in all habitable rooms. 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. |
| 2. | The refuse and cycle stores are located outside of the application site outlined in red on the site location plan. The proposed development, by reason of the location and siting of the site and lack of access for refuse collection vehicles would not provide adequate servicing arrangements and cycle storage for the proposed dwelling. In addition, there is a conflict between pedestrians (including future occupiers of the proposed flat) and vehicles using the rear access road to the site, which is a convoluted and lengthy route. Consequently, under the provisions of Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 [as amended], the prior approval of the Local Planning Authority is refused. |
| 3. | The proposal fails to constitute permitted development under Schedule 2, Part 3 Class MA of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) (Amendment) (No. 2) Order 2015 (as amended), because the scope of development proposed includes the removal of bi-fold doors and a new door opening on the eastern elevation of the building and two roof lights, which are not classified as permitted development, and hence prior approval is refused. |
| 4. | The proposed flat has a double bedroom, which is capable of double occupancy, and therefore, it fails to meet the minimum gross internal floor area of 50 square metres for a one bedroom, two person, one storey dwelling, which would result in substandard residential accommodation detrimental to the amenity of the future residents contrary to the DCLG Technical Space Standard. 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. |
