Strategic Policy 8
Policy supports reuse of quality buildings for tourism. Officer found principle acceptable in Mixed Use area with good access to amenities, and visual impact neutral due to no external changes.
General Policy 2
Requires consideration of visual impact (b&c), neighbouring amenity (g), and highway safety/parking (h&i). Proposal had neutral visual impact, no adverse amenity effects, and acceptable highways impacts due to no change in use intensity.
Business Policy 13
Permits use if it does not compromise neighbouring residents' amenities (para 9.5.8). Officer concluded little difference between tourist and residential use, no adverse impact expected as it remains one unit.
