Why it was refused
- The proposed parking arrangement and vehicular access, by virtue of their siting and size, would result in insufficient width for vehicular entering/existing and vehicles slowing, turning and manoeuvring across the footway and on street parking area, leading to conflict with pedestrians and harm to the free flow and safety of traffic, as well as the loss or obstruction of essential on street parking. The proposal is therefore contrary to Section 9 of the National Planning Policy Framework (2021), Policies T2, T4, and T6 of the London Plan (2021), Policies CP24 and CP25 of the Enfield Core Strategy (2010), Policies DMD45, DMD46 and DMD47 of the Enfield Development Management Document (2014), and the Revised Technical Standards for Footway Crossovers (2013).
- The proposed development, in the absence of a tree constraints plan, tree protection plan and trial dig report, has failed to demonstrate that the proposal would retain and protect trees of visual amenity and biodiversity value within the site contrary to Section 15 of the National Planning Policy Framework (2021), Policies G6 and G7 of the London Plan (2021) and CP36 of the Enfield Core Strategy (2010), DMD37, DMD 80 and DMD81 of the Enfield Development Management Document (2014) and the British Standard for Trees in relation to design, demolition and construction (BS 5837:2012).
From the council's decision notice.
