OH MY GOODNESS ME! So it gets even better! We had a planning officer arrive this afternoon as expected, but turns out he wasn't there about the extension but apparently "someone" reported my husbands garage as being used for commercial purposes (he is a joiner but works on building sites NOT...
The windows from where they would draw any lines are essentially her patio doors in her dining room area :-(
Do they work with you to suggest amendments to plans or will they just outright reject?
The ERYC guidance states that anything of 3.5m deep is generally acceptable, but that each development proposal will have it's own merits. They take into account orientation of the site (we are south facing) and things such as whether it will overlook overshadow neighbouring properties (which is...
Thanks so much everyone for your replies. I will offer a cuppa, and generally just be friendly and open - thats all i can do.
