| Condition Details / Information Notes |
| The development hereby permitted shall be begun before the expiration of three years from the date of this permission. Reason: To conform with the requirements of Section 91 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 as amended by Section 51 of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004. |
| Unless where required or allowed by other conditions attached to this permission/consent, the development hereby approved shall be carried out in accordance with the information (including details on the proposed materials) provided on the application form and the following plans/drawings/documents – P 1530 H 001 P 1530 H 101 P 1530 H 102 P 1530 H 103 P 1530 H 111 P 1530 H 112 P 1530 H 113 P 1530 H 201 P 1530 H 210 P_1530- J-100 P_1530- J-104 P_1530- J-110 P_1530- J-114 Water Management Statement for Householder Reason: To define the permission in accordance with policies SWDPR01 and SWDPR03 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan Review 2026 and the National Planning Policy Framework. |
| Positive and Proactive Statement. No problems have arisen in dealing with this application. The planning application sought an acceptable form of development consistent with the requirements of relevant policies and material considerations. No amendments or alterations were therefore required and no further positive or proactive action was deemed necessary. |
| Prior to the first use/occupation of the development hereby permitted, the details set out in the submitted Water Management Statement shall be fully implemented and remain thereafter. Reason: To ensure that an appropriate sustainable drainage system is provided to serve the development in accordance with policy SWDPR 39 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan Review 2026. |
| Prior to the first use / occupation of the development hereby approved, either a bat box (e.g. Ibstock enclosed bat box, Habibat bat box, Schwegler Wall-mounted Bat Shelter 2FE, Schwegler 2F Bat Box) and/or a bird box ( e.g. sparrow terrace, Schwegler 1b, vivaro pro Seville, vivaro pro Barcelona) shall be installed within the land ownership of the site. There should be clear flight path to the box without any clutter directly in front of the entrance. Bat boxes should be installed at least 4m above ground-level, facing south (or southwest/southeast), and not placed above windows. Nest boxes for tits, sparrows or starlings should be fixed two to four metres up a tree or a wall. Open-fronted boxes for robins and wrens need to be low down, below 2m, well hidden in vegetation. Bird boxes should face between north and east to avoid strong sunlight. Reason: To ensure the development contributes to the conservation and enhancement of biodiversity within the site and the wider area in accordance with policy SWDPR29 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan Review 2026. |
| The above site has been reviewed for any potential contamination issues. The proposed development is situated within 250m of a registered landfill or significant area of unknown filled ground which potentially could produce landfill gas. The applicant is advised to consider incorporating matching landfill gas protection measures within the foundations of the proposed extension(s), so as not to compromise any existing gas protection measures which may have been installed in the existing building. If the existing building has no protection measures currently there is no need to install gas protection measures within the proposed extension. REASON To ensure that the risks to buildings and their occupants from landfill sites are adequately addressed. |
