General Policy 3
Presumes against development in undesignated areas but provisions for previously developed land were considered relevant and sufficient to justify the original approval as the building's most recent use was not agricultural. The variation does not alter this assessment.
Strategic Plan EPs 1
Clarifies presumption against development in undesignated areas like this Open Space site. Original approval overcame this via previously developed land; no changes justify revisiting.
Strategic Plan EPs 2
Similar presumption against development; applied same as EPs1 with original justification upheld.
Time limit
The development hereby approved shall be begun before the expiration of three years from the date of this decision notice.
Materials - external facing
All external facing shall be finished in a white painted render and maintained thereafter.
Demolition prior to works
All of the existing building on the site must be removed prior to the commencement of any works on the proposed replacement dwelling.
No permitted development
Notwithstanding the provisions of the Town and Country Planning (Permitted Development) Order 2012 (or any Order revoking or re-enacting that Order) no extensions, greenhouses, polytunnels, walls, fences, garden sheds, summerhouses, garages, car ports, may be erected (other than those expressly authorised by this approval).
No approval for wall
No approval is granted to the wall shown in drawing 02 Rev 2 as this was not shown on the originally approved drawings and this current application seeks only for a variation of the condition relating to the commencement of works.
