There is a presumption in favour of the extension under GP2 and paragraph 8.12.1 in built-up residential areas, provided no adverse impact on character/appearance or neighbouring amenity.
General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning (Predominantly Residential) if it respects the site/surroundings in siting/layout/scale/form/design/landscaping, does not adversely affect surrounding character, and does not adversely affect resident amenity or locality character. The officer assessed the rear extension as having neutral impact on character due to hidden location and similarity to existing, with no amenity harm from vegetation screening and positioning.
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.
