Officer recommendation: That the Committee REFUSE the planning application for the following reasons:
1 Having regard to its height, projection to the rear and proximity to the boundary, as well as the proposed balcony and the sloping nature of the site and surrounding gardens, the proposed development would result in an overshadowing and overbearing effect to the adjacent gardens at 63 and 67 Asquith Road as well as an increase in the perception of overlooking, all to the detriment of the residential amenity of current and future adjacent occupiers and contrary to Policies CP1 and CP10 of the adopted Oxford Local Plan 2001 - 2016 and HP14 of the Sites and Housing Plan.
2 Having regard to its height, depth, width and overall bulk and mass relative to the existing house and surrounding properties, the proposed development would form an overly large and bulky addition to the house and would appear jarring and incongruous when viewed from the gardens of surrounding properties, to the detriment of visual amenity and contrary to Policies CP1 and CP8 of the adopted Oxford Local Plan 2001 - 2016, CS18 of the Core Strategy and HP9 of the Sites and Housing Plan. Additional documents: Minutes: The Head of City Development submitted a report (previously circulated now appended) which detailed a planning application to demolish an existing conservatory and the erection of part single storey, part two storey, side and rear extension including balcony to rear.
