Mr A Burley
SITE

PROPOSAL
Demolition of side extension and porch, alterations to fenestration and construction of self-build dwelling
AMENDMENTS
CASE OFFICER
Ash James
The Officer’s recommendation per the agenda was proposed by Councillor Budzynski and seconded Councillor Brooks. Upon being put to the vote, the motion was carried.
REFUSED for the reasons:
1.
The proposed development, by virtue of its location and scale, would have an overbearing impact on the neighbouring properties; 11, 12,14 and 14a. Due to the elevated nature of the site in comparison to the existing dwellings adjacent to the site, the proposed dwelling would have a dominating effect on the neighbouring properties and would result in unacceptable overbearing. It is therefore concluded that the proposed development would be contrary to policy LHW4 of the Test Valley Borough Revised Local Plan 2016
2.
The proposed development by means of its nature, location and scale could have likely significant effects upon the nearby Solent and Southampton Water European Designated Site which is designated for its conservation importance. In the absence of a completed legal agreement securing mitigation, the applicant has failed to satisfy the Council that the proposal would not adversely affect the special interest of the Solent and Southampton Water European Designated Site, therefore the application is contrary to Policy E5 and E8 of the adopted Test Valley Borough Revised Local Plan (2016) and the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017 (as amended).
3.
In the absence of a completed legal agreement ensuring that the dwelling is built and occupied as a self-build dwelling (following the exemption specified on the signed application form accompanying the application), the proposal would fail to provide mandatory biodiversity net gain as required by Schedule 7A of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as inserted by Schedule 14 of the Environment Act 2021).
Note to applicant:
1.
In reaching this decision Test Valley Borough Council (TVBC) has had regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and takes a positive and proactive approach to development proposals focused on solutions. TVBC work with applicants and their agents in a positive and proactive manner offering a pre-application advice service and updating applicants/agents of issues that may arise in dealing with the application and where possible suggesting solutions.

The Officer’s recommendation per the agenda was proposed by Councillor Budzynski and seconded Councillor Brooks. Upon being put to the vote, the motion was carried.
REFUSED for the reasons:
1.
Due to the design of the proposed dwelling differing from the uniformed appearance within the street scene, the design of the proposal would be out of keeping with the character and appearance of the area, contrary to Policy E1 of the adopted Test Valley Borough Revised Local Plan (2016).
2.
The proposed development, by virtue of its location and scale, would have an overbearing impact on the neighbouring properties; 11, 12,14 and 14a. Due to the elevated nature of the site in comparison to the existing dwellings adjacent to the site, the proposed dwelling would have a dominating effect on the neighbouring properties and would result in unacceptable overbearing.
