Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed cycle store would introduce a disproportionately long concrete path through the
communal rear amenity space to serve a modest four-cycle store, resulting in unnecessary and
unjustified loss of soft landscaping and greenery. The proposal fails to demonstrate that the ancillary
facilities could be more sensitively integrated within the existing layout to minimise the loss of greenery
and hardstanding. The proposal would be contrary to Policies DMD37, DMD81 of the Enfield
Development Management Document (2014), Policy D8 London Plan (2021), and paragraphs 131 and
135 of the NPPF (2024).
