General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in accordance with land use zoning and other plan policies if it respects the site and surroundings (siting, layout, scale, form, design, landscaping), does not harm landscape/townscape character, provides safe access, and avoids adverse road safety impacts. The officer assessed the minor pedestrian access works, finding no adverse visual impact and no road safety detriment due to the guard rail, while improving school accessibility within the primary school zone.
Time limit
The development hereby permitted shall commence before the expiration of four years from the date of this notice.
