General Policy 2
Requires development to respect site and surroundings in siting, scale, form, design (b); not adversely affect surrounding character (c); and not harm amenity of residents or locality character (g). Officer assessed the extension's scale (3.5m x 8.71m x 4.05m ridge), hipped roof design, and screening by existing structures as causing minimal visual change and no amenity harm due to neighbour's blank wall.

Transport Policy 4
Relates to parking provision. Officer noted retention of garage ensures sufficient on-site parking, avoiding on-street pressure.

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.
