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 and landscaping; does not adversely affect the character of the surrounding landscape or townscape; and does not adversely affect the amenity of local residents or the character of the locality. The officer tested the roof replacement against these criteria, finding minimal visual impact due to the rear location not visible from the road, matching tile colour, and lack of neighbour objections. Site visit confirmed changes would be unnoticeable from key viewpoints.
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.
