Scheme description

Erection of a single storey dwelling house at the rear of properties, together with provision of refuse store and landscaping, plus the creation of a new entrance access door on Stockwell Avenue.

Why it was refused
Reason 1

The proposal by reason of its location in the context of the surrounding trees (notably three TPO trees), would result in poor quality outdoor amenity space for future occupants of the proposed dwelling, and in the absence of a BRE compliant daylight and sunlight report to demonstrate otherwise, the proposed dwelling would Lambeth Planning Telephone 020 7926 1180 PO Box 734 Facsimile 020 7926 1171 Winchester www.lambeth.gov.uk SO23 5DG planning@lambeth.gov.uk REFULZ not have an acceptable standard of accommodation in terms of natural light levels within both the dwelling and the outdoor amenity space. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policies H5, Q2, Q7 and Q10 of the Lambeth Local Plan (2021).

Reason 2

The proposed building, by reason of its detailed design and materials would constitute an incongruous form of development that would be out of keeping with the surrounding area and does not result in a development of high quality design. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policies Q5, Q6, Q7, Q8 and Q14 of the Lambeth Local Plan (2021).

Reason 3

The proposed building by reason of its location and close proximity to the existing trees and vegetation on site, would result in the immediate and long-term threat to the continued health and wellbeing of the existing trees (notably three TPO trees) which are of amenity, ecological and biodiversity value and make a positive contribution to the open, spatial, leafy and green character of the locality. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policies Q9, Q10 and Q14 of the Lambeth Local Plan (2021) and Policy G7 of the London Plan (2021).

Reason 4

In the absence of a Unilateral Undertaking or other legal agreement securing appropriate mitigation by restricting future occupiers of the development from obtaining parking permits within the Controlled Parking Zone, providing car club and cycle hire membership, the proposed development would likely exacerbate existing parking stress and congestion on the surrounding highway network. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policies D4, T1 and T6 of the Lambeth Local Plan (2021) Policy T6 of the London Plan (2021).

Reason 5

In the absence of a Fire Safety Statement, the applicant has failed to demonstrate compliance with Policy D12 part A of the London Plan (2021).
