General Policy 2
GP2 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 townscape character; and does not adversely affect local amenities. The officer assessed the minor frontage alterations against these criteria, finding the changes match existing design and finish, improve legibility, and have no adverse impacts, thus fully compliant.
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.
