Reason:-
For the avoidance of doubt and to ensure that the development is carried out as approved. |
| 3. | No works shall take place in relation to any of the development hereby approved until a Construction Method Statement to control the adverse impact of the development on the amenity of the public and nearby occupiers is submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The Construction Method statement shall include details of:
a) parking of vehicles of site personnel and visitors;
b) storage of plant and materials;

And the development shall be carried out in accordance with the approved scheme and statement.
Reason:-
Insufficient information has been supplied with the application in relation to the proposed construction methodology. Submission of details prior to commencement will ensure that the method of construction protects residential amenity.
(PER COMMITTEE REPORT - The CMS submitted does not take into account the guidance provided by the Institute of Air Quality Management (IAQM) for the control of dust and other particulates. It does not detail how monitoring will occur or be recorded, and if some additional measures would be required, apart from damping down during demolition. It does not mention any control of dust for track-out and construction. Whilst the impact of the site is smaller than a larger development, this still does need to be considered. Guidance can be found at https://iaqm.co.uk/text/guidance/construction-dust-2014.pdf) |
| 4. | Prior to any above ground works samples of all materials to be used in the external construction of the building(s) are submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority and thereafter the development shall be constructed with the approved materials.
Reason:-
Insufficient information has been supplied with the application to judge the appropriateness of the materials to be used. Submission of samples prior to commencement will ensure that the appearance of the proposed development will harmonise with the character of the surrounding area.. |
| 5. | Prior to first ocucpation of the development hereby approved, details of all proposed walls, fences and boundary treatment shall be submitted to, and approved in writing by, the Local Planning Authority.

Reason:-
Insufficient information has been supplied with the application to demonstrate what facilities will be available for cycle parking. Submission of this detail prior to occupation in the case of new building works or prior to the use commencing in the case of changes of use is in the interests of providing a wide range of facilities for non-motor car residents and sustainability. |

| 18. | Whilst the assessment undertaken as part of this submission finds the area of the site to which the permission relates to be of low ecological value, this does not discharge the applicant from responsibilities under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 the contravention of which is a criminal offence. |
| 19. | Precautionary advice for birds
Birds are legally protected during the breeding season and need to be considered in respect of any impact from the proposed work. Work involving vegetation clearance must take place outside the optimum breeding season (March to August inclusive), unless it can be confirmed there are no breeding birds in the proposed work area. Note that birds frequently nest outside of the optimum period, particularly during spells of milder weather. It should never be assumed work can always take place without prior investigation.
Birds generally tend to nest in dense shrub beds and mature trees. Where such vegetation may be affected by the proposed work it will require inspection for nesting birds. For example, but not exclusively, blackbird, dunnock, robin, blue and great tit, pigeons, magpies and crows.
When reinstating vegetation and hardstand following building, install permeable surfaces, water butts and rain gardens. Plant a diverse mix of trees, shrubs and herbaceous plants that are of high wildlife value to pollinating insects. Many non-native formal shrubs are great for wildlife, but avoid invasive varieties for example buddleia, cotoneaster and periwinkle among others. If possible install a pond - these are one of the most beneficial wildlife features to have in a garden. |
