Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development constitutes overdevelopment of the site resulting in a cramped visual appearance, adversely impacting the character of the surrounding area. Due to the layout of the proposal and the proximity to neighbouring dwellings, there would be significant adverse impacts on residential amenity for both existing and future occupants of neighbouring dwellings and future occupants of the proposed development. Therefore, the proposed development does not accord with local and national planning policy, specifically Core Strategy Policies CS3, CS6 and CS17; SAMDev Policies MD2 and MD12 and the NPPF.
  2. Insufficient information has been provided to demonstrate that the access is suitable and safe for the proposed development and that a suitable sustainable drainage system can be accommodated to manage surface water run off. Therefore, the proposed development does not accord with Core Strategy Policies CS6 and CS18 and the NPPF. 26/00024/OUT Tabitha Lythe Planning and Development Services Manager Case officer: Rowena Dale, Planning Officer, 01743 253926 Northern Team, planning.northern@shropshire.gov.uk - 01743 258940
