Condition Details / Information Notes
The addition of the large box dormer to the front of the property would have a detrimental impact on the character and appearance of the existing property and wider streetscene which would be contrary to paragraph 8.3.25 of the Council's Design Guide SPD and the design principles set out in policy SWDP 21 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan.
The site is located within an area which has a high potential for bat activity. The proposed development could impact on roosting opportunities for bat, a protected species. Inadequate information has been submitted by way of surveys to enable the Local Planning Authority to consider whether protected species will be affected or what mitigation/enhancment works are required. The proposal is therefore contray to Policy SWDP 22 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan.
The Local Planning Authority has acted positively and proactively in determining this application by identifying matters of concern with the proposal and determining the application within a timely manner, clearly setting out the reason for refusal, allowing the Applicant the opportunity to consider the harm caused and whether or not it can be remedied by a revision to the proposal.
