Why it was refused
- The Local Planning Authority considers that, by virtue of their prominence and solid appearance, the proposed roller shutters would create a blank and obtrusive elevation by covering up the main window panels which are an integral part of the building's detailed design. Their introduction would therefore erode the design quality of the building which is a prominent component of the local streetscene. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policy P10 of the Core Strategy (as amended), Saved Policies GP5 and BD7 of the Leeds Unitary Development Plan Review (2006), the Shopfront Security Design Guide SPG, and Section 12 of the National Planning Policy Framework.
From the council's decision notice.
