| Condition Details / Information Notes |
| The proposed development, as a consequence of its inappropriate scale and form, would result in a level of development which is neither sympathetic or subservient to the host dwelling and would fail to harmonise with the character of the dwellinghouse in terms of design. The proposed development would therefore fail to accord with policy SWDP21 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan 2016 and guidance contained within the South Worcestershire Design Guide SPD 2018 as well as Paragraph 135 of the Framework which seeks to promote high quality design. |

| In dealing with the application the Council has implemented the requirement in paragraph 39 of the National Planning Policy Framework to work with the applicant in a positive and proactive way. We have made available detailed advice in the form of our statutory policies in the Development Plan, Supplementary Planning Documents, as well as offering a full pre-application advice service in order to ensure that the applicant has been given every opportunity to submit an application which is likely to be considered favourably. Unfortunately, the submitted application is not considered to accord with policy. As a result, the Council has been unable to seek solutions to problems arising from this application as the amendments and additional information required to make the application acceptable are substantial and would be required to be submitted as a new planning application. Despite the Council’s efforts, it is considered that the current planning application should be refused for the reasons set out in the decision notice. The applicant is encouraged to seek pre-application advice prior to the submission of any further formal planning application |
