An applicant who had their plans to build on a plot of land in Kempston rejected for a second time has submitted an appeal to the Planning Inspectorate.
The planning application to build a detached home on land adjacent to 19 Rosedale Way was refused for the second time in four months by Bedford Borough Council’s planners in July.

The council listed various reasons for its second rejection, including “by virtue of the siting, scale and form of the proposed dwelling and the limited size of the development site, the proposal would form a cramped, contrived and incongruous form of development.”

More information can be found on the Planning Inspectorate’s appeals casework portal, reference APP/K0235/W/24/3352555, and the council’s planning portal, reference 24/00066/REF.
The deadline for comments from interested parties is Thursday, 28 November 2024.
The applicant was approached via their agent for a comment, but they did not respond at the time of publication.
