Planning committee
Decided by Tandridge Planning Committee on 1 Oct 2026.
Refused
Against officer advice: officers had recommended approval.
- Officers advised approval because the dwelling would use urban land without significant harm to neighbours or the area’s character.
- Comments raised flooding, overbearing effects and concerns about the proposal being out of character; speakers opposed and supported it.
- The committee approved two refusal motions and refused planning permission because of harm to neighbours and the established residential area’s character.
