Conditions or Reasons for Planning Application - MB/03/01849/FULL

Conditions or Reasons:

1) The development hereby approved shall be commenced within five years of the date of this permission.

Reason: To comply with Section 91 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 which is designed to ensure that a planning permission does not continue in existence indefinitely if the development to which it relates is not carried out.

2) Notwithstanding any provision of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 1995 (or any Order revoking or re-enacting that Order with or without modification) no further window or other opening shall be formed on the rear south elevation of the building.

Reason: To protect the amenities of occupiers of neighbouring properties.

3) The first floor window to the bathroom in the south rear elevation of the development shall be fitted with obscured glass of a type to substantially restrict vision through it at all times, and restriction on its opening, details both of which shall be submitted to and agreed in writing by the Local Planning Authority prior to the development commencing on site.

Reason: To safeguard the amenities of occupiers of adjoining properties.

4) Before the premises are occupied all on site vehicular areas shall be surfaced in a manner to the Local Planning Authority's approval so as to ensure satisfactory parking of vehicles outside highway limits. Arrangements shall be made for surface water from the site to be intercepted and disposed of separately so that it does not discharge into the highway.

Reason: In order to minimise danger, obstruction and inconvenience to users of the highway and of the premises.

5) The proposed development shall be carried out and completed in all respects in accordance with the access siting and layout illustrated on the approved plan No. 1339/01/G and defined by this permission and, notwithstanding the provision of the Town and Country Planning General Permitted Development Order 1995 (or any Order revoking or re-enacting that Order) there shall be no variation without the prior approval in writing of the Local Planning Authority.

Reason: To ensure that the development of the site is completed insofar as its various parts are interrelated and dependent one upon another and to provide adequate and appropriate access arrangements at all times.

6) Visibility splays shall be provided at the junction of the vehicular access with the public highway. The splays shall extend to the limits of the site's highway frontage on each side of the access from a point on the centre line of the access measured 2m back from the road channel. The vision splays so described shall be maintained free of any obstruction to visibility exceeding a height of 1050mm above the adjoining road channel level.

Reason: To provide adequate visibility between the existing highway and the proposed access(es), and to make the access(es) safe and convenient for the traffic which is likely to use it (them).

7) All planting, seeding or turfing comprised in the approved details of landscaping shall be carried out in the first planting and seeding seasons following the occupation of the buildings or the completion of the development whichever is the sooner; and any trees or plants which within a period of 5 years of completion of the development die, are removed or become seriously damaged or diseased shall be replaced in the next planting season with others of similar size and species unless the Local Planning Authority give written consent to any variation.

Reason: In the interests of the visual amenities of the site and the area generally.

8) No development shall take place until there has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority a plan indicating the positions, design, materials and type of boundary treatment to be erected. The boundary treatment shall be completed before the building(s) is/are occupied.

Development shall be carried out in accordance with the approved details.

Reason: To safeguard the appearance of the completed development and the visual amenities of the locality.

9) Notwithstanding the details submited in support of this application a rear elevation plan of the house on this plot shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority showing white render to the first floor instead of tile hanging. Only the approved details shall be implemented.

Reason: In the interest of the amenities of occupiers of neighbouring residential occupiers.

10) Details of the method of disposal of foul and surface water drainage shall be submitted to and agreed in writing by the Local Planning Authority including any land drainage system, before the development is commenced. Thereafter no part of the development shall be brought into use until the approved drainage scheme has been implemented.

Reason: To ensure that adequate foul and surface water drainage is provided and that existing and future land drainage needs are protected.

11) The turning space for vehicles illustrated on the approved Plan (No. 1339/01/G) shall be constructed before the development is first brought into use.

Reason: To enable vehicles to draw off, park and turn outside of the highway limits thereby avoiding the reversing of vehicles onto the highway.
