General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning and other policies if it respects the site and surroundings in terms of siting, scale, design; does not adversely affect amenities, character, road safety, or wildlife; and meets other criteria like access and energy efficiency. The officer assessed the minor doorway alterations against this, finding no impacts on street scene visual amenities (not apparent from public views), neighbour amenity (no overlooking), or highways, in a residential-zoned area outside a Conservation Area. The proposal satisfied the policy's tests on amenity (g), character (c), and road safety (i).
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.
