General Policy 2
General Policy 2 applies to development in areas not zoned for development, such as this open space/agricultural site per Ramsey Local Plan 1998. The officer assessed the garage extension as acceptable within the residential curtilage, reasoning that residential properties reasonably require and may extend garages, with no specific countryside policies prohibiting it. The modest scale and screened location ensured no unacceptable landscape or character impacts.
