General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in residential areas that respects site and surroundings in siting, layout, scale, form, design; does not adversely affect landscape/townscape character, neighbour amenities, or highway safety. The officer assessed the amended extensions' reduced ridge height, perpendicular orientation, and obscured glazing as meeting these tests by minimising street scene prominence and protecting privacy/light to neighbours like Crellin Green and Oatlands Avenue properties.
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.
Materials approval
All external facing and/or roofing materials to be used shall match those of the existing building or as indicated otherwise in the submitted drawing SM18/479/1. Reason: In the interests of the character and appearance of the site and surrounding area.
Obscure glazing
The proposed upper level gable window on the west elevation shall be glazed with obscure glass to Pilkington Level 5 or equivalent and permanently retained as such. Reason: To safeguard the amenities of adjoining occupiers from overlooking and loss of privacy.
