Conditions or Reasons for Planning Application - CB/21/03743/FULL

Conditions or Reasons:

1) The development hereby permitted shall begin not later than three years from the date of this permission.

Reason: To comply with Section 91 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 as amended by Section 51 of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004.

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 the existing building in the interests of the visual amenities of the locality.
(Section 12, NPPF, Local Plan Policy HQ1)

3) 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 all 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 by 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 twelve 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) has been completed
the preparation of the site archives (both physical and digital) for deposition at stores approved by the Local Planning Authority has been undertaken and confirmed in writing by the Local Planning Authority. For the digital archive this will include confirmation of the intention to deposit with a CoreTrustSeal certified repository dedicated to storing archaeological archives.
the preparation of an archive report and the submission of a publication report have been completed and confirmed in writing by the Local Planning Authority

Unless otherwise agreed in advance in writing by the Local Planning Authority, items 3 and 4 of Part B of this condition shall be completed within 2 years of the archaeological fieldwork date of completion. Item 5 shall be completed within 3 years of the archaeological fieldwork date of completion.

This condition is pre-commencement as a failure to secure archaeological investigation in advance of development, to secure the long term future of the archive and to make the record of that work publicly available would be contrary to policy HE1 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan 2015-2035 (adopted July 2021) and paragraph 205 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).

4) The proposed garden room/utility shall only be used for purposes incidental to the enjoyment of the dwelling.

Reason: To prevent the introduction of an inappropriate use harmful to the residential character of the area.
(Section 12, NPPF)

5) The development hereby permitted shall not be carried out except in complete accordance with the details shown on the submitted plans, numbers L-02 rev D, L-01

Reason: To identify the approved plan/s and to avoid doubt.
