The officer divided the proposal into dormers, balcony, and rear extension. The front dormers with pitched roofs were judged not out of place in the streetscene and acceptable.
General Policy 2
Requires development in accordance with land-use zoning that respects site surroundings in siting, layout, scale, form, design; does not adversely affect surrounding landscape/townscape character or local residents' amenity/locality character. Officer assessed the rear extension's mansard roof as failing these tests due to incompatibility with local forms and visibility from public lane, while dormers and balcony passed.
