Environment Policy 1
EP1 is referenced in the conclusion as complied with, alongside EP2 and HP16, in the context of no adverse impacts on public or private amenities. The officer did not provide detailed assessment specific to EP1 but grouped it with overall amenity considerations.
Environment Policy 2
EP2 protects landscape character in Areas of High Landscape or Coastal Value unless no harm is shown or location is essential. The modest side extension was assessed as not harming landscape character due to the dwelling's setback, below-road-level position, and screening by sod banks, making it non-prominent.
Housing Policy 16
HP16 restricts extensions to non-traditional countryside dwellings that increase public visual impact. The proposal was found not to detract from countryside amenities or increase the building's impact due to its modest scale and screened location.
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.
