## The Proposal

The application seeks approval for the extension and decking to side elevation of dwelling (comprising amendment to PA 09/00952B). The decking and the size and massing of the extension remain as previously approved, the only difference being the increase amount of glazing to the eastern elevation.

### Assessment

The proposed extension in terms of size, height and design is identical to the previous approved scheme. The only aspect top change is the window fenestration which is still considered appropriate. Therefore it is considered the amendments to be acceptable.

The proposal also includes a decking area which surrounds the proposed extension. It is also considered the decking would be acceptable and would have no adverse impact upon the visual appearance of the property or have an adverse impact upon the residential amenities of the neighbouring properties through overlooking.
