The officer considered the proposal against General Policy 6, which controls advertisements, and Environment Policy 37, specific to Conservation Areas.
General Policy 6
General Policy 6 controls the display of advertisements generally. The officer assessed the proposal as compliant alongside ENV37, noting the high quality materials, scale and colour make it appropriate for the location.
Environment Policy 37
ENV37 controls advertisements in Conservation Areas, requiring they preserve/enhance the area, use appropriate style, traditional materials excluding glossy/reflective, and no illuminated box signs. The stainless steel lettering was found to meet all tests due to its quality and enhancement potential, with no glossy or illuminated elements proposed.
Time limit
The advertisement(s) hereby granted consent shall be begun before the expiration of four years from the date of this notice. Reason: To avoid the accumulation of unimplemented advertisement consents.
