Why it was refused
- The proposed detached self-contained annexe and site is within an area that is at risk from flooding and the application fails to include a satisfactory Flood Risk Assessment that demonstrates that the development will be safe for its lifetime taking account of the vulnerability of its users, without increasing the flood risk elsewhere and, where possible, reducing the flood risk overall. In the absence of a satisfactory Flood Risk Assessment, the proposed development is considered to be at an unacceptable and avoidable risk of flooding and may increase flood risk elsewhere, contrary to policy CS3 of the North Somerset Core Strategy, policy DM1 of the North Somerset Sites and Policies Plan (Part 1), the National Planning Policy Framework (and the associated Planning Practice Guidance).
From the council's decision notice.
