Planning committee

Decided by West Devon Development Management and Licensing Committee on 30 Jun 2026.

Approved

Against officer advice: officers had recommended refusal.

  • Officers advised refusal because the first-floor extension would harm the dwelling’s prominence and the street’s uniform appearance.
  • Supporters said the extension was modest, supported home working, reduced travel and fitted a varied street scene.
  • Members rejected refusal and granted conditional approval because the whole proposal met relevant design and amenity objectives.
