)The applicant is advised that the works pursuant to condition 13 (Vehicle Activation Signs) should be installed at the earliest possible stage prior to the first occupation of the development to ensure the signs have a sufficient opportunity to get bedded in and for the traffic speeds to have time to adjust and settle following their installation. This would allow time for the collection of speed data after a reasonable period (say three months), for the traffic evidence referred to in condition 14 to be provided, and for the scheme to then be designed and go through the S278 process, which is also required prior to first occupation.The applicant is advised that the works pursuant to condition 13 (Vehicle Activation Signs) should be installed at the earliest possible stage prior to the first occupation of the development to ensure the signs have a sufficient opportunity to get bedded in and for the traffic speeds to have time to adjust and settle following their installation.

)The applicant is advised that the details required pursuant to Condition 22 of this decision (surface water drainage infrastructure) should address the following points raised by the Lead Local Flood Authority:
Any watercourses within or adjacent to the site should be included in the maintenance and management plan, even if there is no discharge to them. This would be a riparian ownership issue but leaving it as such is no longer acceptable.
works and bunds within 9m of a watercourse will be carried out as agreed with the IDB.
The Council does not, and is not required to, adopt any SuDS feature. It is the responsibility of the applicant to ensure that the surface water drainage system, in its entirety, will be effectively maintained in the long-term. We therefore expect confirmation of the proposed arrangements for maintenance to be provided with the final detailed design, including the future maintenance and operational needs and the responsible bodies for undertaking maintenance (for all public and private drainage components).
The final detailed design including proposed standards of operation, construction, structural integrity and ongoing maintenance must be compliant with the 'Non-statutory technical standards for sustainable drainage systems' (March 2015, Ref: PB14308), 'Central Bedfordshire Sustainable Drainage Guidance' (Adopted April 2014, Updated May 2015), and recognised best practise including the Ciria SuDS Manual (2016, C753).The applicant is advised that the details required pursuant to Condition 22 of this decision (surface water drainage infrastructure) should address the following points raised by the Lead Local Flood Authority:

)Rights to challenge a planning decision through Judicial Review
Currently there are no third party rights of appeal through the planning system against a decision of a Local Planning Authority.
Therefore, if you have concerns about a planning application and permission is granted, you cannot appeal that decision. Any challenge under current legislation would have to be made outside the planning system through a process called Judicial Review.
A 'claim for judicial review' includes a claim to review the lawfulness of a decision, action or failure to act in relation to the exercise of a public function, in this case, a planning decision. The court's permission to proceed is required in a claim for Judicial Review. A claim for Judicial Review is dealt with by the Planning Court which is part of the Administrative Court and if leave to judicially review a planning decision is granted, the Judicial Review will be decided by a High Court Judge or by another judge or deputy judge authorised to sit in the Administrative Court.
An application to Judicial Review a decision must be made within 6 weeks of the decision about which you have a grievance being made.
