General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning if it respects the site and surroundings in terms of siting, layout, scale, form, design; does not adversely affect the character of the surrounding landscape or townscape; and does not adversely affect amenity of residents or locality character. The officer assessed the chimney removal against these criteria, finding negligible neutral impact on character due to the stack's small size, side location, and lack of interest, with restoration of symmetry enhancing the street scene.
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 26 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2019 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.
