TRI01_SP_001 REV D 'Site Plan', N1005(21)001 D 'Landscape Mitigation Cross Sections Section A', N1005(21)002 D 'Landscape Mitigation Cross Sections Section B', N1005(21)003 B 'Landscape Mitigation Cross Sections Section C', N1005(96)001 rev G 'Landscape Mitigation Plan Sheet 1 of 2', N1005(96)002 rev A 'Landscape Mitigation Plan Sheet 2 of 2'.
Reason: To identify the approved plan/s and to avoid doubt. |
3)
The landscaping as detailed on drawing numbers N1005(96)001 rev G 'Landscape Mitigation Plan Sheet 1 of 2', N1005(96)002 rev A 'Landscape Mitigation Plan Sheet 2 of 2' shall be implemented by the end of the full planting season immediately following completion of the development (a full planting season means the period from October to March). The trees and shrubs shall subsequently be maintained in accordance with the approved landscape maintenance scheme, as set out on these drawings, and any which die or are destroyed during this period shall be replaced during the next planting season.
Reason: To ensure an acceptable standard of landscaping in accordance with Policy EE5 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan and sections 12 and 15 of the National Planning Policy Framework. |
4)
The development shall not commence until a Habitat Management and Monitoring Plan (the HMMP), prepared in accordance with the approved Biodiversity Gain Plan and including:
(a) a non-technical summary;
(b) the roles and responsibilities of the people or organisation(s) delivering the HMMP;
(c) the planned habitat creation and enhancement works to create or improve habitat to achieve the biodiversity net gain in accordance with the approved Biodiversity Gain Plan;
(d) the management measures to maintain habitat in accordance with the approved Biodiversity Gain Plan for a period of 30 years from the completion of development; and
(e) the monitoring methodology and frequency in respect of the created or enhanced habitat to be submitted to the local planning authority.
The scheme shall thereafter be implemented in accordance with the approved details.
Reason: This is a pre-commencement condition to ensure the provision and maintenance of BNG in accordance with paragraph 9 of Schedule 7A of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 and Policy EE2 of the Local Plan. |
5)
Prior to development, a site specific Arboricultural Method Statement and finalised Tree Protection Plan, based on the findings of Section 5.0 "Arboricultural Impact Assessment", Section 7.0 "Tree Protection Measures" and Appendix B "Protective Fencing Specifications" of the supporting document "Arboricultural Assessment" by FPCR Environment and Design, dated January 2025, shall be submitted to the Local Planning Authority for approval. The approved site specific Arboricultural Method Statement and Tree Protection Plan shall then be implemented in strict accordance with the required sequence of operations, with all tree protection barriers and ground protection remaining securely in position throughout the entire course of development works.
Reason: To facilitate a secure Construction Exclusion Zone around the designated Root Protection Areas of all retained trees and hedging, so as to maintain their health, physical integrity, screening, landscape and biodiversity value of these landscape elements located within the site. |
6)
No development shall take place until a scheme has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority for the provision of fire hydrants at the development. Prior to the development first being brought into use, the fire hydrants serving that development shall be installed as approved. Thereafter the fire hydrants shall be retained as approved in perpetuity.
Reason: In the interests of fire safety and providing safe and accessible developments.
(Section 7, NPPF) |
7)
The development hereby permitted shall be undertaken in full accordance with the Councils adopted Construction Code of Practice for Developers and Contractors https://www.centralbedfordshire.gov.uk/info/44/planning/674/codes_of_practice_for_planning.
Reason: In order to minimise the impact of construction work on the amenities of nearby residential properties (Section 12, NPPF) |
8)
No external lighting shall be installed without the prior written approval of the Local Planning Authority.
Reason: To protect the visual amenity of the area and to minimise lighting pollution to accord with the requirements of Policy HQ1 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan and sections 12 and 15 of the National Planning Policy Framework. |
9)
Prior to commencement of above ground works, details of the colour finish of the technical building, digesters and digestate storage tank shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The development shall be carried out in strict accordance with the approved details and the building shall be maintained in that colour thereafter.
Reason: In the interest of visual amenity and to minimise the impact on the rural setting of the site. (Section 12, NPPF) |
10)
The surface water drainage shall be constructed based on the agreed FRA & Drainage Strategy (Ref: CGS, C2627, P1, 28/2/2024) and DEFRAs Non-statutory technical standards for sustainable drainage systems (March 2018) and shall be implemented and maintained as approved. The scheme will manage surface water runoff from the development for up to and including the 1 in 100 year event (+40%CC), it will prioritise infiltration methods with evidence of site testing to BRE365 standards, where infiltration is proven to be unviable, attenuated discharge to a watercourse will be limited to the 1 in 1 year greenfield runoff rate, and there is to be no increase in peak flow in a receiving watercourse. The approved surface water drainage scheme will be implemented early in the construction phase, prior to the construction of any impermeable surfaces and at slab level of phase one at the latest. Any variation to the connections and controls indicated on the approved scheme and supporting drawings, which may be necessary at the time of construction, would require the resubmission of those details to the Local Planning Authority for approval. The applicant must provide details to satisfy points 1 to 7 of the attached informative when submitting details to discharge the condition.
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 CBC Local policy CC3 to CC5 and NPPF Paras 170 to 182 Inclusive of foot notes 62 and 63 and its supporting technical guidance. |
