RESOLVED –

That planning permission be granted subject to the conditions below:

1. The development to which this permission relates shall be begun before 20 May 2024.

2. The development hereby permitted shall be carried out in accordance with the following approved drawings:

1445/P/1A, 1445/P/2, 1445/P/3, 1445/P/4A, 1445/P/5A, 1445/P/6A

3. The development shall only be carried out in accordance with the approved construction management plan under ref. 23/00937/DISCON. The approved plan shall be implemented at all times during development works.

5. The development shall only be carried out in accordance with the Arboricultural Method Statement and Tree Protection Plan by DCCLA (dated March 2021). The tree protection measures approved under this condition shall be implemented prior to the commencement of any works and shall be maintained as such at all times whilst the construction works take place.

6. No development approved by this planning permission shall commence until a remediation strategy to deal with the risks associated with contamination of the site has been submitted to, and approved in writing by, the Local Planning Authority. This strategy will include the following components:

1) A preliminary risk assessment which has identified:

? All previous uses;

? Potential contaminants associated with those uses;

? A conceptual model of the site indicating sources, pathways and receptors; and

? Potentially unacceptable risks arising from contamination at the site.

2) A site investigation scheme, based on (1) to provide information for a detailed assessment of the risk to all receptors that may be affected, including those off site.

3) The results of the site investigation and the detailed risk assessment referred to in (2) and, based on these, an options appraisal and remediation strategy giving full details of the remediation measures required and how they are to be undertaken.

4) A verification plan providing details of the data that will be collected in order to demonstrate that the works set out in the remediation strategy in (3) are complete and identifying any requirements for longer-term monitoring of pollutant linkages, maintenance and arrangements for contingency action.

Any changes to these components require the written consent of the local planning authority. The scheme shall be implemented as approved.

7. No development shall commence until a monitoring and maintenance plan in respect of contamination, including a timetable of monitoring and submission of reports to the Local Planning Authority, has been submitted to, and approved in writing by, the Local Planning Authority. Reports as specified in the approved plan, including details of any necessary contingency action arising from the monitoring, shall be submitted to, and approved in writing by, the Local Planning Authority.

8. Prior to the first occupation of the development hereby approved, full details of both hard and soft landscaping works, shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The approved landscaping scheme, with the exception of the planting, shall be completed prior to any occupation of the development. The proposed planting shall be completed not later than the first available planting and seeding season after completion of the development. Any new trees or plants which within a period of five years, are removed or become seriously damaged or diseased shall be replaced in the next planting season with others of similar size and species, or in accordance with details approved by the Local Planning Authority.

9. No dwelling shall be occupied until the cycle stores and bin stores to each flat have been constructed in accordance with the proposed site layout and store details shown on drawing no. 1445/P/1A. The stores shall be retained as approved at all times thereafter.

10. Prior to the first occupation of the development hereby approved, electric vehicle charging points shall be installed to serve the 5 parking spaces and made available for use. The electric charging infrastructure shall be retained at all times thereafter.

11. If, during development, contamination not previously identified is found to be present at the site then no further development (unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Local Planning Authority) shall be carried out until a remediation strategy detailing how this contamination will be dealt with has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The remediation strategy shall be implemented as approved.

12. The two side-elevation windows at first floor level (facing east and west) shall be installed and retained with obscure-glazing and shall be non-opening other than in parts of the windows which are more than 1.7 metres above the internal floor level of the rooms in which the windows are installed prior to first occupation and retained for the lifetime of the development.

13. The development hereby approved shall be constructed to meet the water efficiency optional requirement of 110 litres of water per person per day, as set out in The Building Regulations (2010) Approved Document G Requirement G2 and Regulation 36.

14. The development hereby approved shall be constructed to The Building

Regulations (2010) Access to and Use of Buildings, Approved Document M
