GP2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning and other policies if it respects the site and surroundings in terms of siting, layout, scale, form, design; does not adversely affect amenities, character, road safety, or flooding risk; and meets other criteria. The officer assessed the proposal complies as no material changes have occurred since original approval, with no impacts on amenities, character, or highways, and the site remains in 'Predominantly Residential' zoning.
Time limit
