Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development does not provide adequate facilities within the curtilage of the site for parking of 3 vehicles, and it has not been demonstrated by way of parking surveys that there is an adequate capacity on-street within a 100m isochrone. As a further consequence, the manoeuvring and parking of vehicles likely to be generated by the proposed development could have an adverse effect on the safety and free flow of users of the adjoining public highway. This is contrary to Policy SP15 in the Adopted Rutland Local Plan Site Allocations & Policies DPD 2014, Design Guidelines for Rutland (SPD), The National Design Guide (2021) and Paragraph 116 of the National Planning Policy Framework (2024).

From the council's decision notice.
