The key issues were compatibility with the Harbour Area designation and potential adverse impacts on access and car parking.
General Policy 2
General Policy 2 sets general standards of development. The officer considered the proposal in light of this policy despite not fully matching the Harbour Area designation, assessing it as acceptable given the site's varied existing uses and lack of adverse impacts.
Transport Policy 13
Requires development in or around harbours not to compromise accommodation of commercial/recreational users or harm character of historic harbours. The officer confirmed the proposal does neither, as it complements leisure uses without highway objections or functional interference.
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.
