General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in residential zoning if it respects site surroundings in siting, scale, form, design; does not harm townscape character or local amenity; and meets other criteria like road safety. Officer found the glazing enclosure acceptable as it matches existing enclosed balconies in Queens Court and Kings Court, causing no adverse character or amenity effects despite varied styles.
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.
No objection
