REASON: To ensure a satisfactory standard of development and to minimise the risk of unaccceptable surface water discharges from the site upon the completion of development. 10 Notwithstanding the provisions of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 1995 (or any order revoking and re-enacting that Order with or without modification), no material external alterations or extensions shall be carried out to the dwellinghouse, nor shall any building, enclosure, domestic fuel oil container, pool or hardstanding be constructed within the curtilage of the dwellinghouse, without application to, and the grant of permission by, the Local Planning Authority. 11 REASON: The Local Planning Authority considers that such development should be subject to formal control to safeguard the amenities of the area. Date: 11-Feb-2013 MURLEY MOSS, KENDAL Director of Planning & Partnerships Summary of Reasons for Approval & Relevant Development Plan Policies Outline planning permission (ref. L1511/NW.0/1990) was granted 5 January 1962, and permits the development of Plot 10 for a detached dwelling, subject to the satisfactory submission and approval of reserved matters relating to access, siting and design. The site is extremely steep and constrained, this heavily influences the design of the proposal. The proposed development is considered to be acceptable in respect of access, siting and design having regard to the extant permission and the constraints of the site. The access proposed is from the most suitable point on the plot. The siting of the proposed dwelling is the most acceptable that can be achieved within the plot given the position of the access, trees on neighbouring land, the steepness of the site, and the position of neighbouring dwellings. The design responds to the steep contours of the site whilst seeking to minimise the mass of the proposed development. It is only open to the Authority to impose conditions insofar as they relate to the reserved matters before us. Therefore, having regard to the provisions of the Development Plan and all other material considerations, including the provisions of the National Planning Policy Framework, the proposal is considered to be acceptable subject to the conditions imposed.

7/2012/3113 6 of 6 NOTICE IMPORTANT This permission refers only to that required under the Town & Country Planning Act 1990 and does not include any consent or approval under any other enactment or under the building regulations. Appeals to the Secretary of State If you are aggrieved by the decision of the Authority to refuse permission for the proposed development or to grant it subject to conditions, then you can appeal to the Secretary of State for Transport, Local Government and the Regions under Section 78 (1) of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990. If you want to appeal, then you must do so within six months of the date of this notice, using a Planning Appeal Form which you can get from the Customer Service Team at the Planning Inspectorate at: Room 4/15 Kite Wing, Temple Quay House, 2 The Square, Temple Quay, BRISTOL BS1 6PN. Telephone: 0117-3726372 Or, alternatively, email enquiries@pins.gsi.gov.uk. Please note, only the applicant possesses the right of appeal. The Secretary of State can allow a longer period for giving notice of an appeal, but he will not normally be prepared to use this power unless there are special circumstances which excuse the delay in giving notice of appeal. The Secretary of State need not consider an appeal if it seems to him that the Authority could not have granted planning permission for the proposed development or could not have granted it without the conditions it imposed, having regard to the statutory requirements, to the provisions of the development order and to any directions given under the order. In practice, the Secretary of State does not refuse to consider appeals solely because the Authority based its decision on a direction given by him. Purchase Notices If either the Authority or the Secretary of State refuses permission to develop land or grants it subject to conditions, the owner may claim that he can neither put the land to a reasonably beneficial use in its existing state nor can he render the land capable of a reasonably beneficial use by the carrying out of any development which has been or would be permitted. In these circumstances, the owner may serve a purchase notice on the National Park Authority. This notice will require the Authority to purchase his/her interest in the land in accordance with the provisions of Part VI of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990.
