Informative Notes:
1 )This permission relates only to that required under the Town & Country Planning Acts and does not include any consent or approval under any other enactment or under the Building Regulations. Any other consent or approval which is necessary must be obtained from the appropriate authority.This permission relates only to that required under the Town & Country Planning Acts and does not include any consent or approval under any other enactment or under the Building Regulations.

2 ) Please note that there is a contribution to pay for the supply/delivery of the bins. Our current charges for this are: Set of food waste bins - £5 +VAT 240 - £25 +VAT per bin This must be paid prior to discharging the relevant condition. A purchase order must be raised for the quantity of bins required and sent to Waste Services quoting the relevant planning reference number. We will also require a map of the site detailing street names, plot and house numbers. Wherever possible, refuse collection vehicles will only use adopted highways. If an access road is to be used, it must be to adoptable standards suitable for the refuse vehicle to manoeuvre safely around site (please see vehicle dimensions below). Typically, until roads are adopted or if the RCV is unable to manoeuvre around the site, bins are to be brought to the highway boundary or a pre-arranged point. If residents are required to pull their bins to the highway, a hard-standing area needs to be provided for at least 3 wheelie bins and a recycling caddy per property. Bins must not encroach on or cause a hazard or obstruction to the public highway. Waste vehicles will reverse a maximum of 15m to the point of collection. If there are any parts of the development that are not accessible to the RCV, bin collection points will need to be provided. The collection point is near to the entrance of the development, however we would need confirmation that the RCV can either enter the site or details of the distance from BCP to the kerbside on Astwick Road. Please also refer to the Design Guide as the Council will not be able to supply waste collections where the bin and access requirements do not meet our contractual provision, anything else differing to this will be incorporated as a condition. http://www.centralbedfordshire.gov.uk/planning/design/info.aspx Current Refuse Vehicle Dimensions Eagle Elite 2 6x4 non-rear steer, 11.5m long Overall Length 11.500m Overall Width 2.530m Overall Body height 3.756m Min Body Ground Clearance 0.309m Track Width 2.530m Lock to Lock Time 4.00s Kerb to Kerb Turning Radius 11.550m Please note that there is a contribution to pay for the supply/delivery of the bins.

3 )The applicants attention is drawn to their responsibility under The Equality Act 2010 and with particular regard to access arrangements for the disabled. The Equality Act 2010 requires that service providers must think ahead and make reasonable adjustments to address barriers that impede disabled people. These requirements are as follows: Where a provision, criterion or practice puts disabled people at a substantial disadvantage to take reasonable steps to avoid that disadvantage; Where a physical feature puts disabled people at a substantial disadvantage to avoid that disadvantage or adopt a reasonable alternative method of providing the service or exercising the function; Where not providing an auxiliary aid puts disabled people at a substantial disadvantage to provide that auxiliary aid. In doing this, it is a good idea to consider the range of disabilities that your actual or potential service users might have. You should not wait until a disabled person experiences difficulties using a service, as this may make it too late to make the necessary adjustment.
