Refused on 1 Jul 2026 · Committee Decision · Last checked 5 Jul 2026
Planning committee
Decided by Stevenage Planning and Development Committee on 30 Jun 2026.
Refused
Against officer advice: officers had recommended approval.
- Officers advised approval because the housing benefits and sustainable location outweighed acceptable impacts, subject to conditions.
- Residents objected to the development’s scale, accommodation, parking, neighbour impacts, bin storage and effect on local character.
- The committee refused the application because of poor outlook, privacy, inadequate parking and likely harm to neighbours and highway safety.
