Conditions or Reasons for Planning Application - CB/21/01244/DOC

Conditions or Reasons:

3) No development shall commence until a detailed surface water drainage scheme, to manage surface water runoff from the development for up to and including the 1 in 100 year event (+40%CC), and a maintenance and management plan for the scheme has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The discharge rate from the development will be limited to the equivalent 1 in 1 year rate, or an appropriate rate as agreed by the Bedford Group of Internal Drainage Boards. The final detailed design shall be based on the agreed drainage Strategy (Ref: Concertus119258, V1.4, 17/8/2020) and DEFRAs Non-statutory technical standards for sustainable drainage systems (March 2018) and shall be implemented and maintained as approved. Maintenance will ensure the system functions as designed for the lifetime of the development. Any variation to the connections and controls indicated on the approved drawing which may be necessary at the time of construction would require the resubmission of those details to the Local Planning Authority for approval.
Reason: To ensure the approved system will function to a satisfactory minimum standard of operation and maintenance and prevent the increased risk of flooding both on and off site, in accordance with para 163 and 165 of the NPPF and its supporting technical guidance.

23) No development shall take place until a written scheme of archaeological resource management (WSARM), has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority.

The WSARM shall include the following components:

1. method statements for the investigation of all archaeological remains present at the site
2. method statements for the preservation in situ of any archaeological remains that cannot be fully investigated (if appropriate)
3. an outline strategy for post-excavation assessment, analysis and publication, including details of the timetable for each stage of the post-excavation works

The said development shall only be implemented in full accordance with the approved WSARM and this condition shall only be fully discharged when:

1. it has been confirmed in writing by the Local Planning Authority that all elements of the archaeological fieldwork have been completed or the preservation in situ of archaeological remains that cannot be investigated has been achieved
2. a Post Excavation Assessment report and an Updated Project Design or a final archaeological report has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. This shall be done within twelve months of the completion of the archaeological fieldwork unless otherwise agreed in advance in writing by the Local Planning Authority
3. the post-excavation analysis as specified in the approved Updated Project Design (if a UPD is prepared); the preparation of the site archive ready for deposition at a store approved by the Local Planning Authority; the preparation of an archive report and the submission of a publication report have all been completed. This shall be done within two years of the conclusion of the archaeological fieldwork unless otherwise agreed in advance in writing by the Local Planning Authority.

Reason:This condition is pre-commencement as a failure to secure archaeological investigation in advance of development and to make the record of that work publicly available would be contrary to paragraph 199 of the National Planning Policy Framework that requires developers to record and advance of understanding of the significance of any heritage assets affected by development before they are lost (wholly or in part).
