Core Refusal Reason
The development would negatively impact residential amenity due to its proximity to an existing dwelling and create a traffic hazard on a sharp bend.
Decision Maker's Conclusion
- The proximity of the container structure to the existing dwelling would significantly compromise the privacy and residential amenity of the occupants.
- The site layout is impractical, creating potential conflicts between vehicles and pedestrians due to the shared access and circulation space.
- The location on a sharp bend without pedestrian crossings would result in a traffic hazard, endangering public safety.
