| 1. | The proposed dwelling would, by reason of height, depth, close proximity to the shared boundaries and location within the rear garden environment of Belle Vue Road, appear as an isolated and visually cramped form of development that is at odds with the established local pattern of development at the rear of Belle Vue Road and result in an uncharacteristically shallow rear garden area for both the proposed dwelling and no. 60 Belle Vue Road. The proposed development would therefore be contrary to Policies 7, 10 and 26 of the Local Plan as well as Paragraph 135(d) of 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 development would, by reason of the lack of information about floor-to-ceiling heights, limited storage space, single aspect layout and the deep open plan living/bedroom area, result in a low quality design that would be to the detriment of future occupiers, contrary to the provisions of Policy D6 of the London Plan and Policies 7 and 10 of the Local Plan. |
| 3. | The proposed dwelling, by reason of its height, depth and close proximity to the shared boundaries, would form a dominant and visually intrusive feature from adjacent rear gardens of nos. 58, 60 and 62 Belle Vue Road that would be detrimental to neighbouring amenity and would therefore be contrary to Policies 7, 10 and 26 of the Local Plan 2021. There would also be conflict with paragraph 135(f) of the NPPF which seeks to ensure a high standard of amenity for existing and future occupiers. |
| 4. | In the event that this application is allowed through the appeals process, the proposals would be liable for the following CIL contributions:
Mayoral CIL (MCIL2) contribution of £975 (x £25 per sqm).
Havering CIL (HCIL) contribution of £4,875 (x £125 per sqm)
Each contribution would be subject to indexation. |
| 5. | The Local Planning Authority has acted positively and proactively in determining this application by assessing the proposal against all material planning considerations, including planning policies and any representations which were received. However, the Authority concluded that the proposals does not comply with the planning policies and guidance. As a result, planning permission has been refused. Consideration was given to seeking amendments, but given conflict with adopted planning policy, notification of intended refusal was given to the agent via email on 19/11/2025. A detailed analysis of the scheme and the reasons for refusal are set out in the officer's report. |
