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. | Flood Risk Activity Permit
The Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2016 require a permit to be obtained for any activities which will take place:
· on or within 8 metres of a main river (16 metres if tidal)
· on or within 8 metres of a flood defence structure or culvert including any buried elements (16 metres if tidal)
· on or within 16 metres of a sea defence
· involving quarrying or excavation within 16 metres of any main river, flood defence (including a remote defence) or culvert
· in a floodplain more than 8 metres from the river bank, culvert or flood defence structure (16 metres if it's a tidal main river) and you don't already have planning permission.
For further guidance please visit https://www.gov.uk/guidance/flood-risk-activities-environmental-permits or contact our National Customer Contact Centre on 03702 422 549 or by emailing enquiries@environment-agency.gov.uk. The applicant should not assume that a permit will automatically be forthcoming once planning permission has been granted, and we advise them to consult with us at the earliest opportunity. |
| 7. | This planning permission does not remove the need to obtain any separate consent of the owner of the adjoining property prior to commencing building works on, under, above or immediately adjacent to their property (e.g. foundations or guttering). The Party Wall Etc. Act 1996 contains requirements to serve notice on adjoining owners of property under certain circumstances, and a procedure exists for resolving disputes. This is a matter of civil law between the two parties, and the Local Planning Authority are not involved in such matters.
A free guide called "The Party Wall Etc Act 1996: Explanatory Booklet" is available on the website of the Department for Communities and Local Government.

| 8. | Statement Required by Article 35(2) of the Town and Country Planning (Development Management) Order 2015: No significant problems were identified during the consideration of the application, and therefore it has been determined in accordance with paragraph 38 of the National Planning Policy Framework. |
| 9. | 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 |
