The officer assessed the proposal against General Policy 2 of the Strategic Plan, focusing on visual impact and neighbouring amenities as key issues.
General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning if it respects site surroundings in siting, scale, design; does not adversely affect townscape character, residential amenities, or road safety. The officer tested the rear extension's design, scale, and position against criteria (b), (c), and (g), finding it appropriate, not visible publicly, and with acceptable amenity impacts due to amendments and context of similar neighbour extensions.

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.
