General Policy 2
Requires development to respect site surroundings in siting, layout, scale, form, design; not adversely affect townscape character or amenities; and consider energy best practice. Officer assessed the window replacement complies as it matches existing style, does not detract from the terraced dwelling or Conservation Area, and UPVC is established in the locality.
Environment Policy 35
Permits only development in Conservation Areas that preserves or enhances character and protects special features. Officer found the like-for-like UPVC awning window replacement preserves the area's appearance, given widespread similar replacements in the street, and does not constitute inappropriate development.
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.
