Why it was refused
- The proposed development, due to its orientation and proximity to the shared boundary with 12 Private Drive (No 12), large footprint and mass, would result in harm to the living conditions of the occupiers of No 12, through loss of light and overshadowing. The proposal is therefore contrary to policies CLP14 and CLP20 of the Chesterfield Borough Local Plan 2018 - 2035, the provisions of the "Successful Places" SPD and the wider National Planning Policy Framework. Statement of Positive and Pro-active Working with Applicant In accordance with the requirements of the Town and Country Planning (Development Management Procedure) (England) (Amendment No. 2) Order 2015 and paragraph 39 of the 2024 National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) as the proposed development does conflict with the NPPF and with ‘up-to-date’ policies of the Local Plan, it is not considered to be ‘sustainable development’ to which the presumption in favour of the development applies. The Local Planning Authority considered the merits of the submitted application and judged that there was no prospect of resolving the fundamental planning problems with it through negotiation, despite attempts to resolve the issues relating to the design of the proposal during consideration of an earlier planning application.
From the council's decision notice.
