Environment Policy 1
ENV1 presumes against development in countryside/High Landscape Value areas to protect character and quality. The officer assessed the proposal against this, distinguishing it from the refused PA 12/00109/B (larger extension deemed unacceptable intrusion) due to minimal changes, darker materials, limited visibility, and recent precedent approval, concluding no harmful visual impact.
Environment Policy 2
ENV2 protects countryside amenities from harmful development or intensification. The appeal inspector for PA 12/00109/B found prior proposals visually harmful and intensifying business use; here, the officer found no discernible change in use/nature/intensity, with physical changes negligible, thus compliant.
Time limit
The development hereby approved shall be begun before the expiration of four years from the date of this decision notice. Reason: To comply with article 14 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) (No2) Order 2013 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.
Use restriction
The building may be used only as an agricultural machinery dealership and associated workshop. Reason: to accord with the lawful use of the site.
