OPINION REFUSAL
1 The proposed development is contrary to Policy QD1 of the Department's Planning Policy Statement 7: Quality Residential Environments and associated guidance in that it would if permitted, result in over development of the site, be out of keeping with the character and appearance of the local area by virtue of its siting, layout, form, scale and massing. The proposed site is too restricted to permit the erection of an additional dwelling of reasonable design and dimensions and with adequate amenity space and adequate landscaping. 2 The proposal is contrary to policy QD1 of the Department's Planning Policy Statement 7: "Quality Residential Environments" in that it would result in overdevelopment of the site and would constitute town cramming. The proposal would cause an unacceptable and fundamental change to the existing character of the semi-detached dwellings. Page 42
