Why it was refused

  1. By reason of the siting, scale and design, the proposed development would unacceptably impact on the character of the property and would due to its prominence unacceptably impact on the character of the street scene. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policies MD2 - Design of New Development and MD5 - Development within Settlement Boundaries of the Vale of Glamorgan Adopted Local Development Plan 2011 - 2026, and the advice within the Supplementary Planning Guidance on Residential and Householder Development (2018).
  2. The proposed development would unacceptably impact upon the safe existing parking provision of the site in that the proposed second space would result in vehicle movements within the footway which would be detrimental to highway safety. Furthermore, the difficulties in using this space would likely lead to a reliance for on street parking, where there is limited availability within the proximity of the site, where any on street parking would likely be detrimental to highway safety. The proposal is therefore considered contrary to Policy MD2 of the Vale of Glamorgan Local Development Plan 2011-2026, Technical Advice Note 18 – Transport (2007) and Manual for Streets and the Council’s Residential and Householder SPG and Parking Standards SPG.

From the council's decision notice.
