Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposal, by reason if its unacceptable height, scale, massing and close
proximity to neighbouring occupiers would result in a harmful loss of outlook to
52 and 60-62 Calbourne Road resulting in an unacceptable sense of enclosure
to the detriment of their amenity. As such, the proposal is considered contrary to
Policy LP2 Part B.3 of the Wandsworth Local Plan 2023.
In dealing with this application the Council has implemented the requirement in the
National Planning Policy Framework to work with the applicant in a positive and
proactive manner and the Council has, as far as practicable, sought solutions to
problems arising in relation to dealing with the planning application. We have made
available detailed advice in the form of our statutory policies in the Local Plan consisting
of the Core Strategy, Development Management Policies Document, Supplementary
Planning documents and where appropriate the Site Specific Allocations Document as
well as offering a full pre application advice service. However, we have been unable to
seek solutions to problems as the principle of the proposal is contrary to our statutory
policies and negotiation could not overcome the reasons for refusal.
