General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning if it respects site and surroundings in siting, layout, scale, form, design; does not adversely affect character, amenities, or road safety; and provides satisfactory standards. The officer tested the rear terrace and garden room against these, finding them modest, subordinate, rear-sited to avoid visual harm, and with no amenity or highway impacts due to scale, separation, and screening.
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.
