Conditions or Reasons for Planning Application - CB/13/02373/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) Notwithstanding the details submitted, no development shall commence until a scheme has been submitted to 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) The two rooflights serving the first floor playroom in the rear (northern) roofslope of the development hereby permitted shall be of fixed type and fitted with obscured glass of a type to substantially restrict vision through it at all times. No further windows or other openings shall be formed in the roofslope.

Reason: To safeguard the amenities of occupiers of adjoining properties

4) 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 side (western) end gable elevation of the extension.

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

5) Before the development is brought into use the on site vehicular areas shall be constructed and surfaced in a stable and durable material in accordance with details to be approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority for a distance of 5.0m into the site, measured from the highway boundary. Arrangements shall be made for surface water drainage from the site to be intercepted and disposed of separately so that it does not discharge into the highway.

Reason: To avoid the carriage of mud or other extraneous material or surface water from the site so as to safeguard the interest of highway safety and reduce the risk of flooding and to minimise inconvenience to users of the premises and ensure satisfactory parking of vehicles outside highway limits.

6) Any gates provided shall open away from the highway and be set back a distance of at least 5.0m from the nearside edge of the carriageway of the adjoining highway.

Reason: To enable vehicles to draw off the highway before the gates are opened.

7) Notwithstanding the provisions of the Town and Country Planning General Permitted Development Order 1995, or any amendments thereto, the garage accommodation on the site shall not be used for any purpose, other than as garage accommodation, unless permission has been granted by the Local Planning Authority on an application made for that purpose.

Reason: To retain off-street parking provision and thereby minimise the potential for on-street parking which could adversely affect the convenience of road users.

8) The garage hereby permitted shall be designed to ensure that a minimum driveway length of 5.5m clear of the highway is obtained together with a garage door of a type that does not protrude from the front of the garage whilst being opened. The door shall thereafter be permanently retained on site, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Local Planning Authority.

Reason: To ensure that adequate provision is made for the parking of a vehicle clear of the highway in the interests of public safety.

9) The development hereby permitted shall not be carried out except in complete accordance with the details shown on the submitted plans, numbers [ Design and Access Statement, 013/SM/001 Rev B, 013/SM/002, 013/SM/003, 013/SM/004, 013/SM/005 Rev A, 013/SM/006 Rev A].

Reason: For the avoidance of doubt.
