General Policy 2
General Policy 2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning and Area Plan proposals if it respects site and surroundings in terms of scale, form, design, does not harm townscape character, resident amenities, or locality character. The officer assessed the balcony enclosure against these criteria, finding it acceptable as it replicates existing enclosed balconies on the 1970s apartment block and nearby buildings, with no adverse effects on character or amenities. The site's Predominantly Residential Use zoning supports residential alterations like this.
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.
