General Policy 2
GP2 applies to development in Residential zoning on the Area Plan for the South (2013), requiring it to respect the site and surroundings in terms of siting, layout, scale, form, design, avoid adverse effects on landscape/townscape character, and protect local residents' amenity. The officer tested the roof tile replacement and chimney removal against criteria (b), (c), and (g), finding the tiles sufficiently similar to existing to avoid material change, and the rear stack removal not publicly visible with positive benefits for weather-tightness and neighbour outlook, thus 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.
