Conditions or Reasons for Planning Application - CB/09/01158/FULL

Conditions or Reasons:

1) The development hereby approved shall be commenced within three 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) No development shall be undertaken until a scheme has been submitted and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority setting out the details of the materials to be used for the external walls and roof. The development shall be carried out in accordance with the approved scheme.

Reason: To protect the visual amenities of the building and of the area generally.

3) No development shall be undertaken until a scheme setting out measures for protecting the mature sycamore adjacent to the proposal during construction work has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. No work shall commence on site until the tree to be protected is fenced with 2.3 high weldmesh fencing securely mounted on standard scaffolding poles driven firmly in the ground in accordance with
BS 5837:2005;
for trees and shrubs the fencing shall follow a line 1.0m outside the furthest extent of the crown spread, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Local Planning Authority;
for upright growing trees at a radius from the trunk not less than 6.0m, or two thirds of the height of the tree whichever is the greater;
for other natural features along a line to be approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority.
Such fencing shall be maintained during the course of the works on the site. No unauthorized access or placement of goods, fuels or chemicals, soil or other materials shall take place inside the fenced area.

Reason: To safeguard the existing trees on the site in the interests of visual amenity.

4) All works to or affecting trees on or adjoining the site resulting from construction works, including the erection of scaffolding, shall be carried out in accordance with the relevant recommendations of BS3998 (1989).

Reason: To safeguard the existing trees on the site in the interests of visual amenity.

5) The extension hereby permitted shall not be occupied at any time other than for purposes ancillary to the residential use of the dwelling known as 4 Churchills.

Reason: The ancillary accommodation created by the development is not suitable, because of the circumstances of the site, to be used as a separate, independent residential unit.

6) Prior to the first occupation of the building the first floor dormer windows in the eastern elevation of the development shall be fitted with obscured glass of a type to substantially restrict vision through them at all times, and restriction on their opening, details of which shall have been previously submitted to and agreed in writing by the Local Planning Authority.

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