Why it was refused

  1. The proposal put forward includes the introduction of a rooflight to the front roofslope, the omission of a previously proposed rear rooflight, the omission of a previously proposed fenestration alteration to the rear, and the addition of replacement windows throughout. This would result in a change to the operative part of the development, i.e. the original Merrion House 110 Merrion Centre Leeds LS2 8BB Town and Country Planning Act 1990 planning description. As a result, it would fall outside the powers of the Local Planning Authority to grant planning permission for the development under Section 73 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990, as amended and this planning application must fail on this basis.
  2. Notwithstanding reason for refusal number one, the Local Planning Authority considers that the alterations to the front dormer, through its use of unsympathetic materials and form, renders it as an incongruous feature presenting harm to the character of the streetscene. The front dormer is in a highly prominent location which exacerbates this harm. This is contrary to the aims and intentions of policy P10 and P12 of the Leeds Core Strategy (Selective Review 2019), saved policies GP5 and BD6 of the UDP (Review 2006), policy D of the Collingham Neighbourhood Plan (2017), policy HDG1 of the Leeds Householder Design Guide SPD (2012), and guidance contained within the National Planning Policy Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
