How they reason — coded from their reports

Aboud has a comparatively thin sampled corpus with a notable share of large institutional/mixed-use schemes alongside standard householder extensions, and on the householder side she is distinctive for matching a proposed pod extension and terrace's scale and depth PRECISELY to an already-approved neighbouring scheme under its own reference, describing the new proposal as matching 'the depth of the approved neighbouring terrace' rather than a general character comparison. On larger schemes she runs a full numbered committee-style report structure (Neighbouring Amenity, Highways/Parking, Flood Risk, Biodiversity Net Gain, Air Quality, Fire Strategy, Land Contamination) mirroring the format used for major applications.

Observable habits

· matches a proposed pod extension or terrace's scale and depth PRECISELY to an already-approved neighbouring scheme under its own application reference, rather than a general character comparison

· on larger institutional or mixed-use schemes, structures the report as a full numbered committee-style report (Neighbouring Amenity, Highways/Parking, Flood Risk, Biodiversity Net Gain, Air Quality, Fire Strategy, Land Contamination)

· on basement extensions, works through a lettered (a) through (i) checklist against the Council's basement Key Principle criteria systematically

What their reports consistently look for

· whether a proposed pod extension or terrace's scale and depth precisely matches an already-approved neighbouring scheme under its own application reference

· for larger schemes, whether each numbered committee-style heading (Neighbouring Amenity, Highways, Flood Risk, Biodiversity Net Gain, Air Quality, Fire Strategy, Land Contamination) has been separately addressed

· for basement extensions, whether each lettered criterion (a)-(i) of the basement Key Principle is individually satisfied

In their own words

The proposed terrace above the existing rear extension would match the depth of the approved neighbouring terrace at no.43 Hammersmith Grove.

2022/01349/FUL

Officers do not consider that the proposal would result in any adverse harm to resident's amenity by way of loss of light, privacy or increase in noise and disturbance to justify refusing planning permission, in accordance with policies HO11, CC11 and CC13 of the Local Plan (2018)
