General Policy 2
Requires development in land-use zoning to respect site/surroundings in siting/layout/scale/design, not adversely affect townscape character, local amenity, road safety/traffic flows, or prejudice adjoining land. Officer found proposal complies as it fits comfortably in rear curtilage, has minimal neighbour impact, is in-keeping, provides safe access without traffic issues, and benefits parking in the area.
Environmental Policy 39
Presumption in favour of retaining buildings making positive contribution to Conservation Area character/appearance. Officer determined the two outbuildings 'do not make a positive contribution', so demolition and garage doors are acceptable.
Time limit
The development hereby permitted shall commence before the expiration of four years from the date of this notice.
