The officer considered the visual appearance of the proposal in relation to the street scene, concluding that it would be a very modest alteration and not a prominent feature.
General Policy 2
General Policy 2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning and other policies, provided it respects the site and surroundings in terms of siting, layout, scale, form, design; does not adversely affect character, amenity, wildlife, views, highways, or safety; and meets service, contamination, and energy criteria. The officer assessed the door installation against these, finding it a modest alteration that would not harm street scene prominence, character, or any other listed aspects, with no objections from consultees.

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.
