Why it was refused

The proposed development by reason of the enlargement of the existing storage area, provision of additional cycle storage area and creation of additional refuse storage area would be contrary to the approved landscaping details previously discharged on this site ( ref 25/01655/GPDO) and detrimental to the visual amenity resulting in poor design and layout contrary to policies DM10, DM13, T6 of the Croydon Local Plan (2018) and Policy D3 of the London Plan (2021).
The local authority Is not satisfied that sufficient information has been provided to demonstrate that the proposal would provide an acceptable standard of accommodation in terms of sufficient internal light to the proposed flat in line with policy DM10 of Croydon Local Plan (2018).
The local authority is not satisfied that sufficient detail has been provided to ensure that the proposal would result in provision of suitable refuse and cycle storage facilities in terms of access, appearance and capacity for potential and existing occupiers and therefore would be contrary to Policy DM13 and DM10 of The Croydon Local Plan 2018.
The proposal fails to provide adequate swept paths analysis to demonstrate that a suitably sized vehicle would be able to access and leave the disabled car parking space between the proposed cycle storage buildings in a safe and acceptable manner contrary to Policy DM29 of the Croydon Local Plan (2018) and Policy T4 of the London Plan (2021).

From the council's decision notice.
