Why it was refused

  1. Condition 9 of the original consent (ref: TP/85/0622) which granted the construction of the estate (of which the subject dwellinghouse forms part of) removes permitted development rights for porches. Condition 9 states: “Pursuant to Article 3(2) of the Town and Country Planning General Development Orders 1977-1981 the provisions of Article 3(1) and Classes I and II and II.1 and II.2 of Schedule 1 to the said Orders (relating to development within the curtilage of a dwelling house and certain sundry minor operations) shall not apply to the development hereby permitted. No development falling within these Classes shall be carried out without the prior permission of the Local Planning Authority being obtained”. It is considered that the restrictions imposed by this condition remain in place, and accordingly, the subject dwellinghouse does not benefit from permitted development rights under part 1, Schedule 2 of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended). Accordingly, an application for a Certificate of Lawful Development (proposed) should be refused. First Schedule (description of operations) Enclosure of existing porch to front elevation. Certificate of lawful development (Proposed).
