How likely is it that a #planning application will be turned down when it’s business vs domestic?
We’re next door to a proposed very large extension which resulting in several additional windows at the 1st floor which will overlook our garden & we’ll lose what privacy we have.
@helenclayton not sure - Hubbie has downloaded all the documents and we’ll be trying to go through them over the Christmas holidays (just what we needed!). I’m hoping cos they are also in a conservation area and the modifications will affect the front of the building that it’ll get rejected (the boundary of our house with theirs is the edge of the conservation area)
@hobbitswife Domestic planning applications are more likely to be turned down if there are reasoned objections, based on planning law, from neighbours.
Privacy can be a reason if gardens and windows in the area have privacy from other buildings.
@theaardvark it’s a business next door and they are just in a conservation area too. The back line of their building lines up with mine at the moment and there are two windows that overlook my bathroom & kitchen, nothing direct into the garden. The extension will have new windows directly overlooking plus additional on the existing building where they currently don’t exist. It’ll be horrible having such a huge building there but I can’t see us winning
