Environment Policy 35
Requires development in Conservation Areas to preserve or enhance character and appearance. The officer assessed the rear-sited car port as having neutral impact amid existing utilitarian features like garages and bins, thus preserving (not harming) the area and complying. Also applied alongside General Policy 2 for character/appearance in residential zone.
General Policy 2
General development management policy. The car port deemed acceptable as a residential structure not out of place in the environment, particularly at the rear where views are unlikely.
Environment Policy 10
Requires Flood Risk Assessment in flood zones. Waived for this open car port as it adds no additional strain or enclosed structure requiring defences.
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 26 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2019 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.
