Construct first floor rear extension and front and rear dormer windows

42 Sandy Lane Bramcote, Nottinghamshire, NG9 3GS

This application sought to construct a first floor rear extension, a front and rear dormer windows andcouncillor D K Watts had requested this application be determined by the Planning Committee.  This application was deferred at the meeting of 21 April 2021 in order for a site visit to be undertaken.

There were no late items.

Mr M Knowles (objecting) addressed the Committee prior to the general debate.

Members debated the application and the following comments were amongst those noted:

• The proposal was over intensive for the surrounding area.
• There would be a loss of neighbour amenity.

RESOLVED that the application be refused due to the proposed extension by virtue of its excessive scale and massing would represent an overdevelopment of the dwelling.  The extension would result in a significant loss of amenity for nos. 40 and 44 Sandy Lane.  Accordingly, the proposal would be contrary to Policy 17 of the Part 2 Local Plan (2019), Policy 10 of the Broxtowe Aligned Core Strategy (2014) and the National Planning Policy Framework (2019).

(Councillor D K Watts having declared an interest in this item, left the Council Chamber prior to the debate.)
