Proposed Development
*4.3
Full Planning Permission: 2 no. dwellings at 37 Hall Close (land
adj), Kettering for Mr C
Jablonski
Application No: NK/2021/0924
Speaker:
None
|
|
Decision
Members received a report about a proposal for which full
planning permission was being sought for the erection of
2 no. dwellings.
Members raised concerns regarding the insufficient road
condition for construction vehicles and
also raised concerns regarding the close proximity of
neighbouring dwellings.
Concerns were also raised by members in relation to the adverse
effect n character and appearance of
area the proposed development would have.
Following debate it was proposed by
Councillor Jelley and seconded by Councillor Thurland that the
application be refused contrary to the officers recommendation due
to the overdevelopment of the proposed site and the overbearing
nature of the development.
It
was agreed that the application be REFUSED for the
following reasons:
|
1.
By reason
of its design and layout the proposed development would result in
overdevelopment in this location harmful to the character and
appearance of the streetscape and the surrounding built
environment. The
application therefore is contrary to 8 (d) of the North
Northamptonshire Joint
Core Strategy 2011-2031 and inconsistent with paragraph 130 and
chapter 12 of the NPPF. NK/2021/0924 Page 2 of 4
2.
By reason
of the position, proximity and
relationship of the proposed dwellings to each other and
surrounding properties, notably no.37 Hall Close, the proposal
would result in detrimental harm to the residential amenity of
adjoining properties contrary to Policy 8 (e)i) of the North Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy
and inconsistent with paragraph 130 of the
NPPF.
(Members
voted on the motion to refuse the application)
(Voting:
For 7, Against 1)
The
application was therefore
REFUSED
