General Policy 2
Requires development to respect site/surroundings in siting/layout/scale/design, avoid harm to landscape/townscape/amenity/traffic, provide safe access/parking, and reduce energy consumption. Officer found the small-scale charger acceptable in the car park context, with no highway harm and energy benefits tipping the balance.
Environment Policy 35
Permits only development preserving/enhancing Conservation Area character, protecting special features. The white charger may stand out but would not harm character due to site context (walls, railings, building backdrop); electric vehicle benefits outweighed minor visual impact.
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 26 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2019 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.
