Construct single storey and two storey rear extensions

8 Kenton Avenue, Nuthall, Nottinghamshire, NG16 1PX

Councillor P J Owen requested that this application be determined by Committee at the meeting of 8 June 2022 where it was deferred to allow a site visit to take place.

There were no late items for the Committee to consider.

Sheik Assab, objecting, addressed the Committee prior to the general debate.

The Committee considered the application and were concerned by the size and scale of the proposed development along with it’s impact on neighbour amenity.  It was noted that a previous planning permission that had been granted and subsequently lapsed without being built was for a significantly smaller extension. 

RESOLVED that planning permission be refused with the precise wording of the refusal delegated to the Chair of Planning Committee in agreement with the Head of Planning and Economic Development.

Reasons

The proposed extensions given the scale and size represent an over intensive form of development which would have an unacceptable impact on the amenity of the immediate neighbouring properties in terms of loss of light by virtue of its overbearing nature, contrary to Policy 17 of the Broxtowe Part 2 Local Plan (2019) and Policy 10 of the Aligned Core Strategy (2014).
