General Policy 2
General Policy 2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning provided it respects the site and surroundings in terms of siting, layout, scale, form, design; does not adversely affect townscape character or local amenities; and meets other listed criteria. The officer tested the balcony enclosure against character and amenity impacts (criteria b, c, g), finding it acceptable as it matches existing enclosures in the apartment block and nearby, with no adverse effects. The site's residential zoning and non-conservation status supported compliance.
no highway safety implications
