The officer assessed the proposal against General Policy 2 (GP2) criteria, focusing on whether it respected the site and surroundings in terms of siting, layout, scale, form, design, and landscaping; …
General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in accordance with land use zoning and other policies if it respects site/surroundings (siting, layout, scale, form, design, landscaping), does not harm landscape/townscape character, resident amenities, provides safe access/parking, avoids adverse road safety/traffic impacts, and considers safety/security. The officer tested the amended layout against these criteria, noting differences from approved apartments (terraces vs blocks, visible parking, greater setback) but found it acceptable as in keeping with southern terraced housing and not unsympathetic to rear semis, with retained hedging and no consultee objections.
Time limit
The development hereby permitted shall commence before the expiration of four years from the date of this notice.
Approved plans
This approval relates to the erection of ten terraced dwellings and associated parking and landscaping as shown in drawings 2313.506.3, ADR_C01, 2313.508.01, 2313.508.02, 2313.508.04, 2313.508.03 and 2313.506.4 all received on 26th October, 2012.
Parking and road layout
Prior to the occupation of the dwellings hereby approved, the approved road layout up to the application plots including parking areas must be laid out to at least base course level and available for use by occupiers of the approved dwellings and apartments.
Landscaping scheme
All planting, seeding or turfing comprised in the approved details of landscaping must be carried out in the first planting and seeding seasons following the completion of the development or the occupation of the dwellings, whichever is the sooner. Any trees or plants which within a period of five years from the completion of the development die, are removed, or become seriously damaged or diseased must be replaced in the next planting season with others of a similar size and species. For clarification, all areas outside of the footprints of the proposed dwellings which are not to be paved for access or parking must be grassed.
