DC10 TELECOMMUNICATIONS

The council support the expansion of Telecommunications networks, but are keen to avoid any detrimental impact on the local townscape. Proposals for telecommunications development should meet the following criteria where applicable:

  • the proposed apparatus and associated structures should be sited and designed in order to integrate successfully with the design of the existing building, and thereby minimise its impact on the external appearance of the building;
  • the siting and appearance of the proposed apparatus and associated structures should be compatible with the scale and character of existing development, their neighbours and their setting, and should minimise impact on the visual amenity, character or appearance of the surrounding area;
  • the siting and appearance of the apparatus and associated structures should not have an unacceptable impact on conservation areas, listed buildings, buildings of merit or areas of open space; and
  • where appropriate, proposed apparatus and associated structures should share locations where there is an existing facility.
