East Dunbartonshire Council Planning Objection Success

Planning Application Withdrawn

We’re pleased to share another successful outcome for a client, following the withdrawal of a planning application for a two-storey rear extension to a residential property in East Dunbartonshire.

Our professionally prepared objection raised strong concerns about the proposal’s impact on neighbouring amenity and the character of the area, including:

• Loss of daylight and overshadowing of adjacent properties

• Overbearing scale and visual intrusion, particularly to the rear elevation

• Incompatibility with the scale and style of surrounding homes

• Failure to meet local design guidance for residential extensions

We demonstrated that the development would have an unacceptable effect on privacy, outlook, and light—core principles protected by local planning policy. The planning authority was notified of these issues, and the applicant ultimately withdrew the application prior to determination.
