General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in Residential zoning that respects the site and surroundings in terms of siting, layout, scale, form, design and landscaping (b); does not adversely affect townscape character (c); and does not harm residents' amenity or locality character (g). The officer assessed the porch addition and alterations as compliant because they match the existing split slate finish, project only 750mm, and have less impact than the previously approved scheme by omitting glazing and reducing render. The single-storey scale fits the streetscene of similar properties.
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.
