The main issue was whether the proposed rear extensions would have adverse visual impacts upon the countryside in an Area of High Landscape or Coastal Value.
Environment Policy 1
Requires protection of countryside (land outside settlements) unless overriding national need and no alternative. Officer assessed the proposal would not adversely affect the countryside given its rear location and screening.
Environment Policy 2
Protects Areas of High Landscape or Coastal Value (AHLV) unless no harm to character/quality or essential location. Site is in AHLV; officer found extensions would not harm character due to not being publicly visible.
Housing Policy 16
Restricts extensions to non-traditional dwellings where increasing public impact. Bungalow is non-traditional; officer confirmed extensions to rear, not projecting beyond existing elevations, screened by hedgerow, ensuring no increased public visibility.
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 14 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) (No2) Order 2013 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.
