5.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
6.The Local Planning Authority has acted positively and proactively in determining this application by assessing the proposal against all material planning considerations, including planning policies and any representations which were received. It subsequently determined to grant planning permission in accordance with the National Planning Policy requirement that applications for sustainable development are approved where possible. A detailed analysis of the scheme is set out in the report on the application prepared by officers.
