- PROPOSAL: Part two/part single storey rear/side extension incorporating rear balcony and rear canopy, first-floor front extension, side rooflight, front porch and alterations to fenestration following partial demolition of existing house and removal of chimney stack.
- CPC VERDICT: Claygate Parish Council has Objections and Comments on the above application.
COMMENTS: the Guidelines for distance have been breached – ground floor is 0.4 M and first floor is 1 M. There is no arboricultural report on all the trees and no Proposed Site Plan. Side windows will require obscure glazing.
- EBC VERDICT: Refuse Planning Permission
1. The proposal by the virtue of its design, scale, bulk and appearance and positioning in relation to the neighbouring properties, would result in a dominant and incongruous form of development, [Ed Note: Really?] further it is not considered to be in keeping with the design of the existing dwelling and would result in adverse impact and harm to the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area. As such, the proposal would be contrary to the requirements of Policy CS17 of the Core Strategy 2011, Policy DM2 of the Development Management Plan 2015 and the Design and Character SPD Companion Guide: Home Extensions 2012 and the NPPF 2023.
2. The proposal is located within an area of high risk of surface water flooding and the submitted flood risk assessment fails to demonstrate that the proposal is safe and does not increase flood risk elsewhere and contains no measures to mitigate such risk. The proposal is contrary to the National Planning Policy Framework, policy CS26 of the Elmbridge Core Strategy and Flood Risk Supplementary Planning Document.
