Why it was refused
- The proposal to remove Condition 2 attached to application (Granny annexe) to allow for the classification of the building as a separate residential dwelling would result in the proposed use (residential dwelling) conflicting with the description of development as originally approved (Granny annexe). Finney and Fiske case law explains that when the proposed changes conflict with the original description of development, it no longer falls within the remit of a section 73 application. Thus, a section 73 application cannot change the original description of development and this proposal cannot be approved through a section 73 application type.
From the council's decision notice.
