Environment Policy 1
Presumption against development in areas of open space not designated for a particular purpose on the 1982 Development Plan Order. The officer acknowledged this but found the proposal acceptable as an extension to an existing dwelling guided by specific housing policies rather than new development.
Housing Policy 15
Requires extensions or alterations to traditionally styled countryside properties to respect the proportion, form, and appearance of the existing property, with over 50% floor space only exceptional. The officer assessed the proposal as modest (under 15%), well designed to match the property, and not harmful to character even if visible, fully complying with the policy tests.
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 14 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) (No2) Order 2013 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.
granted interested party status under the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) (No 2) Order 2013 paragraph 6 (4) d (no objection implied as no representations received)
