General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in line with zoning if it respects site/surroundings in siting, scale, design; avoids adverse impacts on landscape/townscape, resident amenity, locality character; provides safe access/parking; and does not harm road safety. The officer tested the porch, garage conversion, and rear extension against criteria b, c, g, h, i, finding them compliant due to minor scale, matching materials, retained parking, and no overlooking.
Extensions to Dwellings in built up areas or sites designated for residential use
This presumes in favour of extensions in built-up areas outside Conservation Areas/Registered Buildings if no adverse impact on adjacent properties or surroundings. The officer applied it directly, confirming the proposal has no such adverse effects on neighbours or area.
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.
