General Policy 2
GP2 sets general standards for acceptable development, including character/appearance (b,c) and neighbouring amenity (g).

Addresses reducing outbreak of fire. No new issues raised as it extends an existing dwelling.
Community Policy 11

Infrastructure Policy 5
Relates to water conservation. No increased water usage or new runoff issues beyond existing dwelling arrangements.
