Why it was refused

  1. The submitted flood risk assessment fails to include the appropriate information (the author and date of assessment) expected within such a flood risk assessment. Therefore the LPA does not possess sufficient information in order to conduct an informed assessment. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policy PSP20 of the South Gloucestershire Local Plan: Policies, Sites and Places Plan (Adopted) November 2017; and policy F4 of the National Planning Policy Framework.
  2. Bedroom 6 would be served by an inadequate provision of natural light and outlook. The proposed arrangement does not therefore represent high quality site planning, with the design compromising the amenity of future occupiers, contrary to the aims of policy PSP8 of the South Gloucestershire Local Plan: Policies, Sites and Places Plan (Adopted November 2017) and L2 of the National Planning Policy Framework.
  3. The proposed front extension would represent a discordant and disproportionate extension to an existing dwelling. It would be viewed as an incongruous feature in the existing street scene, to the detriment of the visual amenity and character of the host dwelling and area. The proposal is therefore not considered to exhibit the highest standards of design and site planning and is therefore contrary to Policy CS1 of the South Gloucestershire Local Plan: Core Strategy (Adopted December 2013); Policy PSP1 and PSP38 of the South Gloucestershire Local Plan: Policies Sites and Places Plan (Adopted November 2017); the guidance of the South Gloucestershire Household Design Guide SPD (Adopted 2021); and policy L2 of the National Planning Policy Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
