Core Planning Reasoning

Decision Maker's Conclusion
- The proposed development is acceptable in principle under the residential zoning objective and complies with the general principles for extensions set out in the Development Plan.

- Concerns regarding property boundaries, oil tanks, and security do not constitute planning grounds for refusal, as the structure is located within the site boundary and the area remains visible from the public road.
