Conditions or Reasons for Planning Application - MB/04/01205/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) All external works hereby permitted shall be carried out in materials to match as closely as possible in colour, type and texture, those of the existing building.

Reason: To safeguard the appearance of the completed development by ensuring that the development hereby permitted is finished externally with materials to match/complement the existing building(s) and the visual amenities of the locality.

3) 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 works shall be commenced for the extension of the building(s) or any material alteration of its external appearance until detailed plans and elevations have been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority

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

6) No development shall commence until a wheel cleaning facility has been provided at all site exits in accordance with a scheme to be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The wheel cleaner(s) shall be removed from the site once the roadworks necessary to provide adequate access from the public highway have been completed (apart from final surfacing) to the satisfaction of the Local Planning Authority.
Reason: In the interests of the amenity and to prevent the deposit of mud or other extraneous material on the highway during the construction period.

7) Before the access is first brought into use a triangular vision splay shall be provided on each side of the new access and shall measure 1.8m along the fence, wall, hedge or other means of definition of the front boundary of the site, and 1.8m measured into the site at right angles to the same line along the side of the new access drive. The vision splays so described and on land under the applicant's control shall be maintained free of any obstruction to visibility exceeding a height of 600mm above the adjoining footway level.

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

8) Before the development commences on site, details of the existing and proposed ground levels of the development in relation to any adjacent house and/or road shall have been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. Such details must be sufficient to clearly identify the completed height of the development in relation to the adjacent development.

Reason: To ensure that a satisfactory relationship results between the new development and adjacent buildings and public areas.

9) 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.

10) Prior to the commencement of the development hereby approved the parking facilities for the existing dwelling shall be provided in strict accordance with the approved drawing No. 03.098.03. The parking spaces shall be made available for the parking of vehicles and for no other use without the prior written consent of the Local Planning Authority.

Reason: For the avoidance of doubt and in the interest of highway safety.
