Issue - meetings

Demolition of existing single garage and porch. Construction of 1 no new three bedroom dwelling, driveway and crossover to serve the new dwelling and the extension and alteration of 31 Harrison Road, Borough Green.

RESOLVED: That planning permission be REFUSED for the following reason:

(1)     The proposal, by virtue of its siting, layout and overall size, would result in an incongruous form of development that would erode the openness of a corner plot to the detriment of the visual amenities of the street scene and prevailing character of the wider locality.  The development is therefore contrary to policy CP24 of the Tonbridge and Malling Borough Core Strategy 2007 and the requirements contained at paragraphs 127 (c and d) and 130 of the National Planning Policy Framework 2018.

[Speakers: Christine Chapman, Aaron Austin and Kim Skinner – Members of the public]
