Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed development, by reason of the proximity of bedroom windows (Flat 1 and Flat 2) to
the built form and in the case of Flat 1 boundaries would result in poor living conditions in terms of
poor outlook and an unacceptable sense if enclosure. The proposed development is contrary to
Policy DMP 1 of the Brent Local Plan.
2
Insufficient information has been submitted to demonstrate that the proposed first floor side
window would not result in harmful overlooking to first floor windows at number 29 Park Avenue
and vice versa. The proposed development is contrary to Policy DMP 1 of the Brent Local Plan.
3
The junction of rear dormer and roof of first floor rear extension, by virtue of its siting, design and
size would result in an overly prominent and discordant addition. It would fail to appear subservient
to the original building to the detriment of the character and appearance of the original building
and the surrounding area. This would be contrary to the requirements of policy DMP1 of the Brent
Local Plan and the guidance contained in Brent’s SPD2 guidance (2018).
