Why it was refused

  1. Due to the limited details provided to the internal layout of the bedrooms, the proposed development has failed to demonstrate that a functional layout would be retained following the installation of furniture. This would therefore result in a substandard standard of accommodation for future occupiers, contrary to policy D6 of the London Plan 2021 and policy DMP1 of Brent's Local Plan 2019-2041.
  2. The proposed development, by virtue of its inappropriate layout and fenestrating siting, would fail to provide the living room and kitchen to the ground floor flat with adequate outlook and daylight. This would result in a substandard standard of accommodation for future occupiers, contrary to Policy D6 of the London Plan 2021 and Policy DMP1 of Brent’s Local Plan 2019–2041.
  3. The proposed development, by virtue of obstructed access to the shared path required to access the communal amenity space would be contrary to Policy D6 of the London Plan 2021, Policy DMP1 of Brent’s Local Plan 2019–2041, and the guidance in Brent’s Residential Amenity Space and Place Quality SPD 2023.
  4. The proposed development, by virtue of the inappropriate layout of the forecourt, would fail to provide adequate space for car parking. This would result in vehicles overhanging onto the footway, obstructing access to the bin stores and shared path to the rear amenity space, which is detrimental to highway safety. This is contrary to Policy DMP1 of Brent’s Local Plan 2019–2041, Section 7 of Brent’s Domestic Footway Vehicle Crossover Policy, and Brent’s Waste and Recycling Storage and Collection Guidance 2015.
  5. The proposed cycle stores, by virtue of their insufficient depth, inappropriate siting and obstructed access would be deficient in numerical terms and substandard in quality. This would be contrary to policy T5 of the London Plan 2021 and policy DMP1 of Brent's Local Plan 2019-2041.
  6. In the absence of a UGF master plan and calculations, the proposed development has failed to demonstrate the minimum UGF score of 0.4 would be met. This is contrary to policy G5 of the London Plan 2021, policy DMP1 of Brent's Local plan 2019-2041 and the guidance in Brent's Sustainable Environment & Development SPD 20223.
  7. In the absence of a sustainability statement, the proposed development has failed to demonstrate how main water consumption targets of 105L or less per person per day for internal use and 5L for external use would be achieved. This is contrary to policies DMP1 and BSUI4 of Brent’s Local Plan 2019-2041.
