The officer identified the key issues as the impact on the character and appearance of the existing building and the surrounding area/street scene.
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 assessed the modest garage alterations against these criteria, finding no harm to the building, landscape, or amenities due to limited visibility and enhancement of the elevation.
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. This approval relates to drawing referenced 745.06 date stamped 25th November 2016.
