General Policy 2
Requires development in accordance with land-use zoning that respects site and surroundings in siting, layout, scale, form, design (b), does not adversely affect surrounding landscape or townscape character (c), and does not harm amenity of local residents or locality character (g). Officer assessed rear extension as minor, proportionate, not publicly visible, and not harmful to neighbours, finding full compliance.
Housing Policy 16
Prohibits extensions to non-traditional dwellings where they increase public impact. The modern bungalow has non-traditional elements like varied roof forms and a sunroom with lantern roof; officer found the rear extension acceptable as it does not increase public impact being on the rear elevation not visible from highway.
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.
