General Policy 2
GP2 presumes in favour of development that is appropriate in form, scale and design relative to the site and surroundings and does not result in highway safety issues. The officer tested the rear extension's scale (2.25m x 3.7m x 2.6m), design (tying into existing approvals), visual impact (not publicly visible), neighbour amenity (overbearing from wall height assessed as not materially harmful), and highways (no issues per consultee). Compliance with parts (b), (c) and (g) was confirmed, with the disabled need adding weight.
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.
