Conditions or Reasons for Planning Application - CB/25/03916/DOC
Conditions or Reasons:
2) No development shall commence until a final detailed design of the 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), has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The approved drainage works shall be completed prior to the completion or occupation of buildings on site whichever is the sooner. The discharge rate from the development will be limited to the equivalent greenfield 1 in 1-year rate, or an appropriate rate as agreed by the Local Planning Authority or IDB. The final detailed design shall be based on the agreed 'Drainage Strategy and SuDS Assessment 25.08.2022' and DEFRAs Non-statutory technical standards for sustainable drainage systems (March, 2018), addressing the requirements A-G below, and shall be subsequently implemented and maintained as approved.
The detailed drainage design to be provided shall include, at a minimum:

A clearly labelled drainage layout plan showing pipe networks and any drainage storage tanks and petrol interceptors. This plan should show any pipe 'node numbers' that have been referred to in network calculations and it should also show invert and cover levels of manholes.
The proposed impermeable area.
Total required volume of attenuation (m3).
Where an outfall discharge control device is to be used such as a vortex control or orifice, this should be shown on the plan with its dimensions and rate of discharge stated.
Calculations should demonstrate how the system operates during a 1% Annual Exceedance Probability (AEP) critical duration storm event, including an appropriate allowance for climate change and urban creep in line with the National Planning Policy Framework Technical Guidance. If overland flooding occurs in this event, a plan should also be submitted detailing the location of overland flow paths including the extent and depth of ponding.
Management / maintenance arrangements (including adopting body).
Formal agreement from third party if discharging into their system.

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 policies CC3 to CC5 and NPPF Paras 164 - 177 and relevant footnotes and its supporting technical guidance.
3) 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 a fire hydrant at the development. Prior to the first occupation of the building the fire hydrant serving that development shall be installed as approved. Thereafter the fire hydrant shall be retained as approved in perpetuity.

Reason: In the interests of fire safety and providing safe and accessible developments. (Section 12, NPPF)
10) Prior to the construction of vehicular parking areas associated with the approved development, a scheme for the charging of electric and ultra-low emission vehicles shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The scheme shall accord with Policy T5 of CBLP and the objectives of the Council's adopted SPD: Electric Vehicle Charging, Technical Guidance for New Development (2022), and shall include the following:

· Details of active charging posts or passive provision such as cabling and electricity supply for the proposed development; and
· Timescales / triggers for implementation of the scheme.

The development shall be completed in accordance with these approved details including the agreed timescales / triggers.

Reason: To assist with the transition to low-emission vehicles in line with Policy T5 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan, the Council's adopted SPD: Electric
Vehicle Charging, Technical Guidance for New Development (2022), and paragraph 117 of the National Planning Policy Framework (2024).
