Why it was refused
- The proposed conversion , by reason of the bedroom size and overall accommodation would not provide an adequate standard of internal accommodation space for the dependant relative contrary to the National Described Space Standards as adopted. Furthermore the introduction of a new window and double door located only 4.8m from common boundary No. 26 Luther Way which would result in an unacceptable standard of separation creating an oppressive environment and potential loss of amenity to both parties by virtue of privacy and overlooking. The proposal would therefore be considered Policy CP3 and Policy BE1 of the Lichfield District Local Plan Strategy, the Lichfield Design Code, the sustainable development SPD and Policy P3 and the relevant provisions of the NPPF
From the council's decision notice.
