General Policy 2
Requires development in line with zoning to respect site/surroundings (siting/layout/scale/form/design), not adversely affect character/townscape/amenity. Officer assessed modest scale, matching finishes, obscurity, and health needs outweigh design differences (flat roof vs mansard); no amenity/highway harm, thus compliant despite not ideal design.
Community Policy 6
Permits health facility extensions if no overconcentration, unacceptable character/amenity impact, highway issues, and accessible. Site zoned Hospital; extension supports Renal Unit without traffic/residential amenity harm or character over-impact due to small scale/location.
Time limit
The development hereby permitted shall commence before the expiration of four years from the date of this notice.
