No.Condition Text
1.The proposed dwelling through its design, scale, bulk, depth and proximity to the shared boundaries would form an incongruous and visually cramped form of development at odds with the character of the surrounding area to the detriment of the visual amenity of the locality. The proposal would therefore be contrary to Policy 26 of the Havering Local Plan 2016-2031, Policy D4 of the London Plan and also the guidance within the NPPF which requires fundamentally that development add to the overall quality of the area whilst also establishing or maintaining a strong sense of place.
2.The proposed dwelling would form a visually intrusive and overbearing feature within the rear garden environment due to the excessive depth of the proposed rear projections and their proximity to the shared boundaries which would be detrimental to neighbouring amenity and therefore be contrary to Policies 7 and 26 of the Havering Local Plan 2016-2031. There would also be conflict with the National Planning Policy Framework.
3.In the absence of an Arboricultural Impact Assessment, there is a lack of information to identify the impacts from the proposed development to the trees on site. There are concerns that the proposed development would, by reason of its siting, result in harm to the oak tree on the site protected by Tree Preservation Order 23-87 and the other trees within the site, which would be materially harmful to the character and amenity of the surrounding area contrary to Policy 27 of the Havering Local Plan, G7 of the London Plan and the guidance contained in the National Planning Policy Framework.
4.Statement Required by Article 35 (2) of the Town and Country Planning (Development Management Procedure) (England) Order 2015: Consideration was given to seeking amendments, but given conflict with adopted planning policy, notification of intended refusal and the reason(s) for it was given to Mr Breden by e-mail on 11/06/24.
5.For Residential Development Only Please be advised that approval of this application from 1st September 2019 (either by London Borough of Havering, or subsequently by PINS if allowed on appeal following a refusal by London Borough of Havering) will attract a liability payment of £106,950 plus indexation in Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL). This charge has been levied under s.206 of the Planning Act 2008 and includes both the Mayor of London's CIL and Havering Council's CIL. London Borough of Havering, as CIL collecting authority, has responsibility for the collection of the Mayoral CIL, in addition to Havering's CIL, on commencement of the development. Your proposal is subject to a CIL Liability Notice indicating a levy of £106,950 plus indexation for the application, based on the Mayoral CIL levy rate for Havering of £25/sq.m plus Havering's charging rate for residential of £125/sq.m (Zone A), and the floorspace of 713 square metres.
