I need to vent. I found out from my neighbour that the house behind mine has submitted planning permission for a dormer. I submitted an objection to this because it will directly overlook my yard and kitchen (terraced houses with tiny yards), limiting my privacy and light, but also because the house next to it (also behind mine) has a massive illegally built dormer that the planning dept decided could stay.
A month has passed and I haven't received any reply to my objection. I checked the planning page today and planning permission has been granted for this dormer. I'm absolutely furious that no one responded to my objection, and now I'll have two dormers looming above my property.
AIBU? I'm so upset. The light into my yard is already significantly impacted by the huge illegal dormer that looms over my house (they built it without planning permission, applied for retrospective and was declined, then when I pursued it they said it could stay cos the owner was too difficult!)
I feel so helpless.
