The parking provision for the site as detailed on the approved plans shall not be used for any purpose other than as parking provision unless permission has been granted by the Local Planning Authority on an application made for that purpose.
Reason: To retain adequate parking provision for the development hereby permitted without adversely affecting the convenience of site and road users. (Section 9, NPPF) |
5)
Prior to occupation, a scheme for the parking of cycles (short- and long-stay) on the site (including the internal dimensions of the cycle parking area, stands/brackets to be used and access thereto) shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority.
The scheme submitted for approval shall accord with the Council's Parking Standards for New Development SPD (August 2023) or subsequent replacement. The scheme shall be fully implemented before the development is first occupied or brought into use and thereafter retained for this purpose.
Reason: To ensure the provision of adequate cycle parking to meet the needs of occupiers of the proposed development in the interests of encouraging the use of sustainable modes of transport. (Section 9, NPPF) |
6)
Prior to above ground construction, details of a scheme for electric vehicle charging provision, commensurate with the Council's Electric Vehicle Charging SPD (December 2022) or any subsequent revision, shall be submitted to, and approved in writing by, the local planning authority. The approved scheme shall be implemented prior to first occupation of the respective part of the development and thereafter retained in a serviceable condition for perpetuity of the development.
Reason: In the interest of encouraging and facilitating more sustainable forms of motorised transport |
7)
The development shall be implemented in accordance with the Energy and Sustainability Statement dated 3rd October 2025 by The PES. The development thereafter shall be carried out in accordance with the Energy and Sustainability Statement.
Prior to occupation of the development hereby permitted, a Verification Survey shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority, which confirms that measures to address climate change and sustainability have been implemented in full.
Reason: In the interest of sustainability and to minimise the impact of the development on climate change, in accordance with Policy CC1 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan. |

- hard landscaping details and materials;
- details of landscape maintenance for a period of five years following completion;
- confirmation of green roof specifications for bin stores.
