Reason:-
In order to ensure a satisfactory development that will not result in any loss of privacy or damage to the environment of neighbouring properties which exist or may be proposed in the future. |
| 6. | a) Prior to the commencement of any groundworks or development of the site, details shall be submitted to and agreed in writing by the Local Planning Authority setting out suitable gas protection measures to be employed on site including, but not necessarily limited to, the installation of a suitable gas resistant membrane, in compliance with BS 8485:2015 and A1:2019. The gas protection measures shall be carried out in strict accordance with the agreed details.
b) Upon completion of installation, a 'Verification Report' must be submitted demonstrating that the works have been carried out.
Reason:-
Insufficient information has been supplied with the application to judge the risk arising from landfill gases (methane and carbon dioxide). Submission of an assessment prior to commencement will protect people on or close to the site from the risks associated with migrating landfill gas. |
| 7. | Land Ownership Informative
The applicant is advised that this planning permission does not give consent for any part of the development including guttering, fascias or the flank window to encroach onto any land not within the applicant's ownership. |
| 8. | Flood Resilience Informative
For any development where a flood risk is identified, the Council as the Lead Local Flood Authority want to see developers consider and implement flood resilience/resistance measures into the buildings themselves. This is not to stop development but to ensure the protection for future residents is maintained and enhanced.
The following measures are strongly recommended, although this list is not exhaustive:-
- Raising the level of the building by at least 300mm above local levels;
- Waterproof membrane in the ground floor;
- Waterproof plaster and waterproofing to ground floor;
- Electrics from the upstairs down and sockets high up off the ground floor;
- Non return valves on the sewerage pipes;
- Emergency escape plan for each individual property;
- Air brick covers; and
- Movable flood barriers for entrances |
