Summary

The owner wants to place solar panels on parts of the Veetee House roof. The panels would sit close to the roof surface.

The roof would look different from nearby places. The panels should have very low glare and stay away from the roof edge. The equipment would be removed when no longer useful.

The council will decide after the comment period. The supplied details do not say whether the work is already built or approved.
