A S171 Licence, relevant to the Highway Act 1980, must be obtained from HighwaysNetwork Management prior to undertaking any works within or excavation of the adopted public highway.
Prior to adoption of the South Worcestershire Development Plan Review (SWDPR), the Local Planning Authority had reached a decision to grant planning permission for this development subject to completion of a Section 106 agreement. It was resolved to grant permission under delegated authority 22.12.2024 Formal instructions to prepare the Section 106 agreement were issued to Legal Services on: 24.12.2024. Evidence of these instructions is recorded on the case file. The SWDPR was subsequently adopted on: 26th March 2026. This represents a material change in the development plan. In accordance with the principles set out in R (Kides) v South Cambridgeshire DC [2002], the Local Planning Authority has considered whether adoption of the SWDPR is capable of materially affecting the earlier planning judgement. Officers acknowledge that the adoption of the SWDPR represents a material change in the development plan and that the Council is now able to demonstrate a five-year housing land supply. However, the Local Planning Authority had already reached a clear planning judgement to grant permission prior to adoption. The decision notice may therefore be issued following completion of the Section 106 agreement. Permissions issued under this transitional approach reflect the procedural stage the application had reached at the point the SWDPR was adopted and do not set a precedent for future decision-making under the SWDPR.
