Summary
The applicant is seeking confirmation that several additions can legally be built without a normal planning application. The work includes a two-storey rear extension, lower side and rear extensions, and a front porch. Laxton Cottage is a detached house built between 1983 and 1990. It stands in protected green belt land, with one mapped tree directly adjacent. Three property fronts have a clear view towards the site, while four are screened by buildings. The closest visible homes are to the north-west and south-east, so the work could affect their outlook and privacy.
What you can do
You can check the drawings and submit comments to City of York Council using reference 26/01376/CPD. This case mainly asks whether the proposed work is lawful, so the council may not consider the usual views about design or neighbour effects.
