General Policy 2
Requires development to respect site/surroundings in siting/layout/scale/design (b), not adversely affect townscape character (c) or amenities (g), and reduce energy consumption (n). Officer confirmed compliance as replacements limit impact on area/residents, improve energy efficiency via double glazing, and enhance tired appearance without adverse effects.
Environment Policy 35
Permits only development preserving/enhancing Conservation Area character, protecting special features. Tested against prominent site where annexe positively contributes; officer found replacements enhance despite uPVC change, citing deterioration of originals, uniformity gains, slate weathering, and better door style.
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.
