Anyone can object to a planning application but for an objection to be given any weight it needs to be policy-based and not general nimbyism, long covid etc. Are there other dormer extensions to similar property types in your immediate vicinity? Assuming yes then you should be grand and at least now you know where you stand forhe party wall and general construction phase of works.

Next door renovated an entire house including the addition of a loft conversion in late 2020/early 21 which he claims severely impacted his recovery.
Even if planning decided in my favour, trying to do something like this without a cooperative neighbour feels like it'll be a right pain in terms of access etc, even if he's legally obliged to permit it. Things like putting scaffolding at the rear, and stop-cock for the property being in his basement.

Fuck's sake.
Having considerately - I thought - given my downstairs neighbour a heads-up that I'd applied for planning permission for this loft conversion, just had a reply that he 'won't be able to support it' because of his long covid and the effect that the construction will have on his health.
It's clear he'll make an objection to my planning application but I've no idea how that might influence the decision. He doesn't actually even own the place, it belongs to his step mum who's somewhere in Leicestershire.
Despite sympathising with his condition, I'm also fucking raging right now.
