Good Morning
We are looking to build above our downstairs w/c to make a en-suite, but unfortunately our council have send the below email, we are unsure what they mean regards to below
1/ does not address the street? ALL other houses have a 2 storey section protruding from the house as our proposal
2/ proximity to highway? Our proposal brings us nowhere nearer to the path or road?
Any advice what else they mean would be appreciated
After a site visit and an initial assessment of the application, it is the view of the Local Planning Authority that we would not look to support a the proposed extension in the current design, as the proposed design does not address the street and given its proximity to the highway this is something that would be needed.
Given the plot the house is sited on, alternative extensions are possible which would be looked at more favourably than the current proposal, such as either a side or rear.
It is the view of the LPA that due to the siting of the extension and the design that does not address the street, we would not look to support the application in its current form. If you may wish to look at the above options as alternatives.
Thanks in Advance Mark
