Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

Local planning is not usually a matter for the UK Government or Parliament. You might like to raise the issues you are concerned about with your local councillors. You can find out who your local councillors are here:

The Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government does have some powers to look at specific planning applications. This briefing paper explains more about that process:
