Why it was refused
- The Local Planning Authority considers that the proposed development, due to the proposed impact on and pruning of a tree subject to a Tree Preservation Order, would be harmful to visual amenity and the character and appearance of the Conservation Area. As a result the proposal would be contrary to Core Strategy policies P10, P12, G8, saved Unitary Development Plan policies GP5, and LD1,the Guideline Distances from Development to Trees document, and the National Planning Policy Framework.
- The proposed extension, due to its design, materials and siting within the Bramley Town Conservation Area, would be visually harmful, intrusive and detrimental to the character and appearance of the Conservation Area. The proposal represents 'less than substantial harm' to the special interest of the Bramley Town Conservation Area, a designated Merrion House 110 Merrion Centre Leeds LS2 8BB Town and Country Planning Act 1990 heritage asset, which is not outweighed by public benefits, as per the relevant NPPF test. The proposal is therefore contrary to policies P10 and P11 of the Core Strategy and saved policies GP5, N19 and BC7 of the Unitary Development Plan, and to guidance within the Bramley Town Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan and the National Planning Policy Framework.
From the council's decision notice.
