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, 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 reroofing against criteria (b), (c), and (g), finding the matching tiles enhanced uniformity without adverse impacts on character, appearance, or amenity.
