2.1Highway Authority:

In relation to highway issues only, Norfolk County Council recommends the following conditions:

HDC 05 – Prior to the first occupation of the development hereby permitted, the vehicular access shall be constructed in accordance with the Norfolk County Council residential access construction specification, and additionally to accord with details to be approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority, for the first 2 metres into the site as measured back from the near edge of the adjacent carriageway.

4.1Mr and Mrs Prestwood of Salatiga, Bell Lane, Salhouse:

8APPRAISAL


8.1The main issues to be taken into account in the determination of this application are an assessment of the proposal against local plan policies and secondly the sites planning history.

8.2The application site is located within the development boundary / settlement limit in both the adopted and emerging local plans and therefore the principle of residential development is acceptable. Consideration should be given to the requirements of policies GS3, ENV2, HOU11 and TRA4 of the adopted Local Plan and policies (RD) GS4, (RD) ENV2, (RD) HOU10 and (RD) TRA11 of the revised deposit version of the Local Plan, to assess whether the site is able to satisfactorily accommodate the proposal.

8.3With regard to the character and appearance of the surrounding area, the proposals are not considered to have a significant detrimental impact. The surrounding area contains a mix of dwelling types and therefore the design of the proposed dwelling is not considered to be out of keeping.

8.4With regard to the proposed plot sizes, under this revised proposal the plot sizes for both the existing and the proposed dwelling are not considered to be out of keeping with the established plot sizes in the surrounding area. The proposed plot is also considered to be adequate to accommodate the proposed dwelling as well as providing parking and turning areas and sufficient private amenity space.

8.5With regard to neighbour amenity the proposed chalet is not considered to have a significant impact in terms of loss of light or privacy. The revised plot size means that an acceptable separation is now maintained from neighbouring properties and given the orientation of the properties there are no concerns in terms of loss of light. The design of the chalet and position of the fenestration means that the main windows at first floor level face to the front and rear raising no concerns in terms of loss of privacy. Although there is one window in the side elevation at first floor level facing Lonicera House, this serves a bathroom and again raises no concerns in terms of overlooking.

8.6This revised application is considered to overcome the reasons for the refusal of application 20050232 given the increased plot size afforded to the proposed chalet. This leaves a plot size that is more in keeping with others in the surrounding area and retains a reasonable separation between the proposed chalet and the existing dwellings. This overcomes the concerns of the plot sub-division being a cramped form of development that is out of keeping with the character and appearance of the surrounding area.

8.7This application is also considered to overcome the Inspector’s decision to uphold a refusal for a dwelling on this site under application 920799. The Inspector was concerned that the proposed bungalow would be squeezed in to a narrow plot and would be visually dominated by Lonicera giving a development out of keeping with its surroundings. This application provides a wider plot retaining a significant separation from neighbouring properties and is not considered to be out of keeping with the character and appearance of the surrounding area. This development is also now considered to be in accordance with PPG3 which emphasises the need to give priority to re-using previously developed land in preference to Greenfield sites and to create more sustainable patterns of development.

8.8The addition of a new access off Norwich Road raises no concerns from a highways perspective subject to appropriate conditions. Although the Parish Council raised concerns in terms of the trees on the south western boundary of the site, the applicant stated on the application forms that no trees are to be removed as part of the application and the trees are not considered to be of any particular merit. In addition the submitted plans show the provision of hedge and tree planting along this boundary.

8.9It is therefore considered that the proposed dwelling accords with the character and appearance of the surrounding area, does not have an unacceptable impact on the residential amenities and privacy of neighbours and raises no concerns in terms of highway safety or the impact upon trees on site.

8.10This application is reported to Committee at the request of the Local Ward Member

  1. To ensure the satisfactory development of the site without prejudice to the amenity of the site or to road safety in accordance with Policies GS3 and TRA4 of the Broadland District Local Plan and polices (RD) GS4 and (RD) TRA11 of the Revised Deposit Version Broadland District Local Plan.

  2. To ensure the satisfactory development of the site in accordance with Policy GS3 of the Broadland District Local Plan and Policy (RD) GS4 of the Revised Deposit Version Broadland District Local Plan.

5. To ensure the satisfactory development of the site in accordance with Policy GS3 of the Broadland District Local Plan and Policy (RD) GS4 of the Revised Deposit Version Broadland District Local Plan.

6. To ensure a satisfactory form of development and plot size in accordance with Policies GS3 and ENV2 of the Broadland District Local Plan and Policies (RD) GS4 and (RD) ENV2 of the Revised Deposit Version Broadland District Local Plan.

Reasons for approval:

This application has been considered against the Development Plan for the area, this being the Norfolk Structure Plan, the Broadland District Local Plan and the Broadland District Local Plan Replacement Version as agreed by the Council for publication of the Revised Deposit. The policies particularly relevant to the determination of this application are GS1, GS3, ENV2, HOU4, HOU11 and TRA4 of the Broadland District Local Plan and policies (RD) GS1, (RD) GS4, (RD) ENV2, (RD) HOU4, (RD) HOU10 and (RD) TRA11 of the Broadland District Local Plan Replacement Version as agreed by the Council for publication of the Revised Deposit.

Policies GS1 and (RD) GS1 state that development will be accommodated within the development boundaries / settlement limits. In addition policies HOU4 and (RD) HOU4 state that permission will be given for individual dwellings of small groups of dwellings within the development boundaries / settlement limits. Policies GS3, ENV2, (RD) GS4 and (RD) ENV2 only permit development where there would be no unacceptable effects upon the character and appearance of the surrounding area and where consideration has been given to the layout and design of any development proposal. Policies HOU11 and (RD) HOU10 state that sub-division of plots will not be permitted where it would lead to development out of character and scale with its surroundings in order to prevent town cramming. Policies GS3, and (RD) GS4 also require that the privacy and amenities of neighbours are adequately safeguarded. Finally polices TRA4 and (RD) TRA11 state that development will not be permitted where it would endanger highway safety of the satisfactory functioning of the highway network.

The application site falls within the development boundary / settlement limit for Salhouse and therefore the principle of residential development is acceptable. With regard to the character and appearance of the surrounding area the proposed dwelling is not considered to be out of keeping within a varied street scene which contains a mix of dwelling types. The proposed plot sizes for both the proposed chalet and the existing house are also considered to be in keeping with the established plot sizes in the surrounding area and the new plot is certainly able to accommodate the proposed chalet as well as private amenity space and the necessary parking and turning areas. The revised size of the plot is also considered to overcome the objections to the previous application maintaining an acceptable separation from the existing dwellings so that it is not a cramped form of development.

With regard to the character and appearance of the surrounding area the design of the chalet and position of the fenestration means that there are no concerns in terms of loss of privacy. The position of the chalet and relationship with neighbouring properties means that there are also no significant concerns in terms of loss of light. The additional access onto Norwich Road also raises no concerns from the Local Highway Authority.

Therefore the application should be approved as it complies with policies GS1, GS3, ENV2, HOU4, HOU10 and TRA4 of the Broadland District Local Plan and policies (RD) GS1, (RD) GS4, (RD) ENV2, (RD) HOU4, (RD) HOU10 and (RD) TRA11 of the Broadland District Local Plan Replacement Version as agreed by the Council for publication of the Revised Deposit.
