Developers have failed in appeals to overturn decisions to build new homes in Telford.
After previously being refused permission, the developer resubmitted an application after altering the design and the site ‘to provide an improvement to the street scene to provide a scheme which complements and enhances the area’.
“The building and site also respect the adjacent properties, and through the existing land use being residential, it is considered that Oakfield can not be classed as oppressive and overbearing however if that is the officers' viewpoint, then that currently exists on a residential parcel of land.” “There are no other relevant material considerations, including the approach of the framework, which would indicate a decision otherwise in accordance with the development plan which, the appeal scheme would be in conflict with. It is for this reason that the appeal should be dismissed.”
