General Policy 2
General Policy 2 presumes in favour of development complying with land-use zoning and other policies, provided it respects site and surroundings in siting, layout, scale, form, design; does not adversely affect surrounding landscape/townscape character; and does not harm local residents' amenity or locality character. The officer tested the roof replacement against these criteria, finding it acceptable due to uniformity with house tiling, de-cluttering, and lack of significant visual discrepancy in a non-sensitive location.
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.
Materials approval
The replacement conservatory roof hereby approved shall be of the colour shown in the untitled photograph sheet submitted as part of the application (and date-stamped as having been received 11th June 2015) unless otherwise agreed in advance with the Department. Reason: For the avoidance of doubt and in the interest of the appearance of the application site.
Castletown Town Commissioners raised no objections to application 15/00659/B following discussion at their meeting on 13 July 2015.
