Core Refusal Reason
Adverse overshadowing of the neighboring property to the north east leading to a loss of residential amenity.
Decision Maker's Conclusion
- The proposed two-storey rear extension would cause significant overshadowing to the property located to the north east.
- The resulting loss of light would negatively impact the residential amenity of the neighboring occupiers.
- The development fails to comply with the standards set out in Section 3.4 of the Wexford County Development Plan 2022-2028 regarding residential extensions.
