Hi Ralph

 

Thank you for taking the time to speak with me.

 

If we were to change this application to an HMO would this impact our ability to extend the property to the full amount requested?

 

I will amend the car parking diagrams for you to show access and the 5m distance required.

 

Kind Regards

 

 

 

Dear Sir

Following my site visit and discussion of the above application with senior colleagues, I can advise you that the proposed extensions are disproportionate additions to the existing dwelling contrary to guidance contained within the Council’s Design Guide to House Extensions SPD. As a guide, two-storey side extensions should not be more than half the width of the existing dwelling, should be setback from the main frontage with a lower ridge height. As proposed the extensions give an impression of an additional dwelling. The proposal is therefore not supported in its current form.

 

Were the extensions acceptable, the revised parking details are inadequate. You will need to illustrate the vehicular access point to the site and how the proposed parking bays would be accessed. The parking bays should achieve minimum length of a 5m.

 

The site is also within a Flood Zone and proposals would need to demonstrate flood mitigation measures.

 

You therefore have the option to withdraw the application and  seek pre-application advice prior to resubmitting the application or let it be determined as submitted with the likely outcome being refusal of planning permission.  Please advise as to how you would like to proceed with the application.
