Members expressed that view that the proposed development due to its scale, design and positioning within the site would have an overbearing impact on the amenity of the neighbouring property at 211 Long Lane.
Decision:
Refuse
Conditions / Reasons:
1. The proposed development, by reason of its scale, design, positioning within the site and relationship to neighbouring dwellings, would have an unduly overbearing impact upon the amenity of the occupiers of the adjoining bungalow at 211 Long Lane. Consequently the proposal would be discordant with the provisions of local plan policy ENV3 of the New Forest Local Plan.
2.The recreational impacts of the proposed development on the New Forest Special Area of Conservation, the New Forest Special Protection Area, the New Forest Ramsar site, the Solent and Southampton Water Special Protection Area, the Solent and Southampton Water Ramsar site, and the Solent Maritime Special Area of Conservation would not be adequately mitigated and the proposed development would therefore unacceptably increase recreational pressures on these sensitive European nature conservation sites. In addition, the air quality impacts of the proposed development on the aforementioned New Forest sites would not be adequately mitigated and the proposed development would therefore unacceptably increase air quality impacts on these sensitive European nature conservation sites. As such, the proposal would be contrary to Policy ENV1 of the New Forest District Local Plan 2016-2036 Part 1 and Policy DM2 of the Local Plan Part 2 Sites and Development Management Development Plan Document and the Supplementary Planning Document - Mitigation for Recreational Impacts on New Forest European Sites.
