General Policy 2
GP2 permits development in accordance with land-use zoning if it respects site/surroundings in siting, layout, scale, form, design and does not adversely affect amenities, locality character, or road safety. The officer tested the window alteration for impacts on residential amenities and area character in a 'Predominantly Residential' zoning per Peel Local Plan 1989. The minor reduction in window size was found to respect the mixed-style bungalow row and cause no detriment.
Time limit
The development hereby permitted shall commence before the expiration of four years from the date of this notice.
