General Policy 2
Neighbour cites GP2(g) requiring protection of living conditions of adjacent properties; officer (Peiran Shen) referenced GP2 in recommending removal of north dormer due to overlooking within 20m (actually 15m). Objection argues proposal harms amenity contrary to this policy.
Neighbor at 3 Cooil Farrane objects strongly to the installation of two dormers at 5 Cooil Farrane, citing overlooking, loss of privacy, visual harm to the streetscene, and incompatibility with local character; references a DEFA officer's recommendation to remove the north dormer.
Key concern: north-facing dormer overlooking within 15m causing loss of privacy to neighbouring habitable rooms and garden
