Why it was refused
- From the information submitted as part of this application for a proposed Lawful Development Certificate, the proposed roof-mounted solar photovoltaic (PV) panels are not permitted development under the terms of Class J, Part 14, Schedule 2 of The Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 as amended as they do not comply with criteria J.1 (c). The proposed roof-mounted solar photovoltaic (PV) panels would be within 1.0 metre of the external edge of the roof, which is not permitted under Class J.
From the council's decision notice.
