| Condition Details / Information Notes |
| By virtue of the removal of the bat loft within the car port, the development would result in the loss of the mitigation measures conditioned under W/16/01614/PP. The planning application does not incorporate sufficient information to enable the Local Planning Authority to make a balanced assessment of the ecological effects of the development, in particular upon roosting bats. The application therefore fails to ensure that the development contributes to the conservation and enhancement of biodiversity within the site. The proposal is therefore contrary to policy SWDP22 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan (2016), as well as the provisions of the NPPF. |
