Hi
Can anyone help or advise please
Recently purchased a semi detached house and applied for a 6m extension under PD,
1st application got refused because neighbour on right side complained even though they have 4m extension and
that the proposal would not significantly impact on the amenity of the unattached neighbours due to existing 4m rear extension and side access. This neighbour is considered to have a reasonable level of amenity.
However, The attached neighbour would be the property most affected by the proposed development. There are concerns that the impact of the 6m deep extension would have a detrimental impact on the attached neighbouring residents.
So we made an agreement with attached neighbour that I pay for there 6m planning fees and we did a joint application.
2nd application for both houses got refused again
Reason In terms of the impact of the proposal on the attached neighbour it would be situated right up against the boundary of this neighbouring property. This neighbour does not currently benefit from a rear extension. As such, it is considered that the depth of the proposal would make it overbearing to these neighbours, dominating their outlook, something which would unacceptably impact their amenity.
It is also acknowledged that the attached neighbours have submitted a prior approval application for a 6m deep rear extension too. However, officers can only assess applications on the basis of developments that are present on site at the time applications are made. Google maps, the site location plan submitted for this application and the site photos provided all illustrate that this neighbour does not currently benefit from a rear extension.
I really don’t get it
Any help PLEASE
