4) No development above slab level shall take place until a landscaping scheme to include all hard and soft landscaping and a scheme for landscape maintenance for a period of five years following the implementation of the landscaping scheme have been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The approved scheme shall be implemented by the end of the full planting season immediately following the completion and/or first use of any separate part of the development (a full planting season means the period from October to March). The trees, shrubs and grass shall subsequently be maintained in accordance with the approved landscape maintenance scheme 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.

5) Prior to commencement, a scheme showing adequate turning space for light goods/emergency vehicles (7.0m in length) within the curtilage of the site shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The approved scheme shall be fully implemented before the development is first occupied or brought into use and thereafter retained for this purpose.
Reason: This is a pre-commencement condition to ensure that the site is arranged to adequately enable vehicles to draw clear and turn outside of the highway limits thereby avoiding the reversing of vehicles on to the highway. (CBLP Policies T1 & T2 and Section 94, NPPF)

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.
