The officer assessed the main issues as impacts on the character and appearance of the property and street scene, and on neighbouring amenities.
General Policy 2
General Policy 2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning if it respects the site and surroundings in terms of siting, layout, scale, form, design (b); does not adversely affect the character of the surrounding landscape or townscape (c); and does not adversely affect the amenity of local residents or character of the locality (g). The officer tested the shed's modest size, siting on the garage side, and height/proximity against these criteria, finding it compliant with no harm to street scene or neighbour amenity, especially given permitted development equivalence.
