General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning if it respects site and surroundings in siting, layout, scale, form, design; does not adversely affect townscape character; and does not harm local residents' amenity. The officer tested the rear extension's modest scale, matching conservatory projection and height, lower positioning relative to neighbour, and lack of side window facing No.38, finding no adverse impacts on amenity or character.
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.
