The principal issues were potential impacts on visual amenities of the street scene and residential amenities of neighbouring properties.
General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning and Area Plan if it respects site/surroundings in siting, layout, scale, form, design; does not adversely affect townscape character, local amenities or overlooking; and provides satisfactory amenity standards. The officer assessed the proposal against these criteria, finding the extension screened by hedgerow with minimal street scene impact, roof lights not prominent, and no neighbour amenity harm due to design and positioning, thus compliant overall.
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.
