REASON FOR REFUSAL
|
1
|
The proposals represent
overdevelopment of the site resulting in a cramped appearance in
this backland of nos. 1 to 7 Margret
Road, which would be out of keeping and character with the locality
and the surrounding area, contrary to National Planning Policy
Framework 2019, Policies CP2 and DBE1 of the Adopted Local Plan
1998 and 2006, and policy DM 9 of the Local Plan Submission Version
2017.
|
|
|
2
|
The application does not
provide sufficient information to satisfy the Council, as competent
authority, that the proposed development will not adversely affect
the integrity of the Epping Forest Special Area for Conservation
and there are no alternative solutions or imperative reasons of
overriding public interest why the proposed development should be
permitted. As such, the proposed development is contrary to policy
CP1 (i), NC1 of the Epping Forest Local
Plan (1998) and Alterations (2006), policies DM2 and DM22 of the
Epping Forest Local Plan (Submission Version) 2017 and the
requirements of the Habitats Regulations 2017.
|
|

|
The proposal would result in an
unacceptable loss of amenity and be overbearing to the occupants of
neighbouring residential properties that adjoin the site, by reason
of increase activity in this former rear garden area and its
position next to their short depth rear gardens of 1-7 Margaret
Road as well as unacceptably overlook
towards the rear garden of 20 Shaftesbury Road, contrary
to the National Planning Policy
Framework 2019 , Policies DBE2 and DBE9
of the Adopted Local Plan 1998 and 2006 and policy DM 9 of the
Local Plan Submission Version 2017.
The proposal, by reason of its
proximity to the motor vehicle body repair business to its north
east would be negatively affected by excessive levels of noise from
the air intake vents attached to that building to the detriment of
amenities of future occupiers of the proposed dwelling houses. The
proposal would therefore be contrary to the National Planning
Policy Framework 2019, Policies DBE2 and DBE9 of the Adopted Local
Plan 1998 and 2006, and policy DM 9 of the Local Plan Submission
Version 2017
