General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning if it respects site/surroundings in siting, layout, scale, form, design and landscaping (b); does not adversely affect character of townscape (c) or amenity of residents (g); and regards energy reduction (n). The officer tested the rear extension's modest scale, same-footprint replacement of conservatory, pitched roof lower than main ridge, and minimal neighbour impacts, finding full compliance with no adverse effects on character or amenity.
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.
