General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning if it respects site/surroundings in siting, layout, scale, form, design; does not harm landscape/townscape character, residential amenity, or road safety. The officer tested the front extension against these criteria, finding it acceptable in the residential area despite unusual design, as it adds interest without being obtrusive or harming neighbours. No tensions noted; full compliance concluded.
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.
