Conditions or Reasons for Planning Application - CB/21/01444/DOC

Conditions or Reasons:

3) No above ground building work or works relating to the change of use of the existing building shall take place until a scheme for protecting the proposed dwellings from noise and odour arising from nearby commercial and leisure & entertainment sources has been submitted to and approved in writing by the local planning authority. The scheme shall be supported and informed by an appropriate noise impact assessment carried out in accordance with relevant technical standards. None of the dwellings shall be occupied until such a scheme has been implemented in accordance with the approved details, and shown to be effective, and it shall be retained in accordance with those details thereafter.

Reason: To protect the amenity of future occupiers of the dwelling units hereby approved.

6) No development shall commence above ground level until a scheme (based on current government policy/guidance at the time of submission) for the provision of electric charging points has been submitted to and approved in writing by the local planning authority. The charging points shall be provided as approved prior to the occupation of the buildings they serve.

Reason: To ensure the development protects and exploits opportunities for the use of sustainable transport modes for the movement of people in accordance with paragraph 105 e) of the National Planning Policy Framework 2019.

7) Before the premises are occupied all on site vehicular areas shall be surfaced in a stable and durable materials in accordance with details to be approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. Arrangements shall be made for surface water drainage from the site to soak away within the site so that it does not discharge into the highway or into the main drainage system.

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

8) Part A: No development shall take place until an archaeological written scheme of investigation (WSI), has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority.

The WSI shall include the following components:

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

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

it has been confirmed in writing to the Local Planning Authority that all elements of the archaeological fieldwork have been completed
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 six months of the completion of the archaeological fieldwork unless otherwise agreed in advance in writing by the Local Planning Authority
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 twelve months 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).
