The officer considered the key issues to be impacts on street scene visual amenities and neighbouring amenities at No. 79.
General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning if it respects site and surroundings in siting, layout, scale, form, design; does not adversely affect townscape character, neighbour amenity, or road safety. The officer tested the front extension's design, scale, and prominence against street scene character and neighbour impacts at 0.6m separation, finding it acceptable as not obtrusive and no significant light loss or overbearing effect due to orientation and projections.
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.
