What refusal means

The process from here

The council refused this application for the reasons set out on the decision notice, which the council portal holds in full. Only the applicant can appeal a refusal; the time limit runs from the decision date and is shorter for householder schemes.

Refusal does not prevent a fresh attempt. Applicants often address the reasons for refusal and resubmit, so a refused scheme is not necessarily the end of proposals for the site.

About outline applications

How this application type works

An outline application tests the principle of developing a site before the detail is worked up. Some or all of the particulars, such as appearance, layout, scale, access and landscaping, are held back as reserved matters for later approval. Permission at outline stage does not by itself allow building to start; the reserved matters must be approved first.

    11 Carruthers Drive Runwell Wickford Essex SS11 7EY

    The proposal comprises the construction of a freestanding raised timber access platform adjacent to the rear elevation of the existing dwellinghouse. The platform will measure approximately 6.4 metres in length and 1.008 metres in width, with a finished floor level approximately 1.14 metres above the existing garden level to align with the threshold level of the existing rear doors. The proposal includes associated steps providing access between the platform and the rear garden, together with handrails and balustrading around the platform and stairway for safety purposes. The structure will be freestanding and positioned immediately adjacent to the rear of the dwellinghouse. No new vehicular or pedestrian access is proposed. No new street, hardstanding, boundary enclosure or alteration to existing site access arrangements is proposed. The development is intended to provide safe access and egress between the existing dwellinghouse and the rear garden due to the significant change in level between the rear door threshold and the garden.
