12070 – DECISIONS TO BE CONSIDERED BY SWANLEY TOWN COUNCIL

23/02762/HOUSE 68 St Marys Road Swanley Kent BR8 7BA – COMMENTS DUE 24/10/2023
Proposed second storey extension, rear single storey extension, loft conversion with alterations to roof including roof lights and internal alterations.

OBJECTION – This application is out of context in design with surrounding properties, contrary to planning policy EN1. The proposed plans do not facilitate a garage, therefore, off street parking would be reduced, this would potentially create on road parking issues in an already vehicle congested location. Planning policy T2 refers to this. Additionally, visual splays appear to be insufficient, therefore on street parking should be discouraged.
