Why it was refused

  1. The changes proposed to omit the white brick banding on the front elevation of dwellings are beyond the scope of a non-material amendment, as a further assessment of other material considerations (such as design) are required to that permitted under 24/00072/REM. These changes are not acceptable under a non-material amendment application, and furthermore, they may prejudice third parties by not providing them with the opportunity to comment on the amendments. The proposed amendments are a material change to the original consent and are not acceptable as a non-material amendment.

From the council's decision notice.
