Delegated decision: Refused · Jasmin Tailor
Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed development compromises the amenity of the future occupants of Flat 2, due to the
failure to provide the minimum gross internal floor area, contrary to policy D6 of London Plan
(2021) and policy DMP1 of Brent's Local Plan 2019-2041..
2
The proposed ground floor rear extension by virtue of its excessive depth from the original rear wall
of the dwellinghouse, would result in a discordant addition that is harmful to the character of the
host dwelling. Furthermore, the proposed first-floor rear extension, by reason of its depth and
proximity to the neighbouring boundary would compromise the residential amenity of the
occupants of the neighbouring property at No. 38 Burns Road, by reason of reduced outlook, loss
of light, overbearing character and increased sense of enclosure, contrary to DMP1 of Brent’s
Local Plan (2019-2041) and Supplementary Planning Document 2 (2018).
3
The proposal would result in an overpovision of parking, encouraging excessive reliance on private
motor vehicles. Furthermore, the proposed bin and cycle storage facilities are inadequate, by
reason of their size and location, contrary to DMP1 and BT2 of the Brent Local Plan (2019-2041)
and Policy T5 of London Plan (2021).
4
In the absence of submissions addressing urban greening, the proposed development would not
demonstrably achieve a satisfactory urban greening factor and would not effectively demonstrate
mitigation and enhancement of local green infrastructure. The proposal is therefore unacceptable
and contrary to the requirements of policy BH4 and BGI1 of Brent’s Local Plan (2019-2041) and
the guidance set out within Sustainable Environment & Development – SPD – 2023.
