Proposal

Variation of Conditions 2 (approved plans), 6 (construction method statement) and 11 (colour scheme) on approved application 25/01961/VARYCO in order to vary the conditions so they accurately reflect the completed development and operate as compliance-based conditions, rather than pre-commencement conditions whose trigger points have been overtaken by events.
