Why it was refused

  1. The Local Planning Authority considers that the submitted plans and details do not accurately describe the relevant planning unit(s) and that formal planning permission should be sought for any subdivision of the plot or households first in order to determine the impact of the proposed annex use. Insufficient information has been provided to allow the Local Planning Authority to definitively assess the impact of the annex use upon the residential amenity of the host household(s) within the plot, future occupants of the annex use, neighbouring properties and other relevant material planning considerations. The proposal is therefore considered contrary to the aims and intentions of Policy P10 and T2 of the Leeds Core Strategy (as amended, 2019), Policies GP5 and BD6 of the Leeds Unitary Development Plan Review (2006) and HDG2 of the Householder Design Guide (2012) and Chapters 4, 12 and 15 of the National Planning Policy Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
