The officer assessed the proposal against General Policy 2 of the Strategic Plan, which requires development to respect site/surroundings in siting, scale, form, design; not adversely affect landscape…
General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in residential zones if it respects site/surroundings (siting, layout, scale, form, design, landscaping/space); avoids harm to townscape, amenity, habitats, road safety; provides safe access/parking; and does not prejudice adjacent land. Officer tested proposal against all criteria, finding it compliant due to lower scale than prior approval, adequate distances/parking, no overlooking harm, and estate context. Prior inspector on PA 02/00712 emphasized single-storey appearance and no overlooking of existing dwellings, which this meets.
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 a dwelling and attached garage, as shown in drawing 0210/PL1018F received on 13th November, 2012.
Garage use restriction
Notwithstanding the provisions of the Town and Country Planning (Permitted Development) Order 2012, the garage may be used only for the storage of motor vehicles in association with the occupation of the main dwelling and may not be used as ancillary accommodation nor converted thereto without planning permission. NOTE: the provisions of the PDO enable this to occur where there is provision for two vehicles to be parked within the curtilage of the dwelling, each space being at least 6m by 3.25m. This is not available within the development as shown.
No further permitted development
Notwithstanding the provisions of the Town and Country Planning (Permitted Development) Order 2012, no extensions, greenhouses, walls, gates, fences, garden sheds, summerhouses, flag poles, decking, garages or tanks for the storage of domestic heating fuel, shall be erected without planning permission, other than are expressly authorised by this approval.
