General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning if it respects the site and surroundings in terms of siting, layout, scale, form, design; does not adversely affect townscape character or local amenity; and meets other criteria like highway safety. The officer assessed the cladding as a modest alteration to a small non-original section, not harming visual amenities or townscape in the town centre mixed-use zone. No tensions noted; fully 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.
