PDP recently secured outline planning consent for the construction of a new dwelling on a sensitive site in a Derby suburb that had previously been the subject of two refused applications and two dismissed appeals for alternative proposals.
A brand new design was prepared which sought to take account of the issues raised by the previous Inspectors’ reports. The revised scheme involved the new dwelling being sited further away from nearby semi-mature trees than was the case with the previous schemes, principal habitable rooms being orientated south and west to ensure a good living environment for occupants, and a limitation on easterly facing first floor windows to guarantee a satisfactory relationship with the neighbouring property.
The application was considered by the Derby City Council Planning Board at their March meeting. Members voted in favour of the planning officer’s recommendation of approval.
