The proposal would not be readily visible from a principal public thoroughfare and therefore would not adversely affect the character of the street-scene or public amenity.
General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning and other policies provided it respects site and surroundings in terms of siting, layout, scale, form, design and landscaping; does not adversely affect character of surrounding landscape or townscape; and does not adversely affect amenity of local residents or character of locality. The officer assessed the rear window replacement as compliant because it is not visible from public thoroughfares, does not alter dwelling character significantly, and creates no new overlooking impacts on neighbours.
Time limit
The development hereby permitted shall commence before the expiration of four years from the date of this notice.
