Decision & conditions
Decision NoticePlanning conditions
- The development to which this permission relates must be begun not later than the expiration of three years beginning with the date on which this permission is granted. Reason To comply with the requirements of Section 91 of the Town & Country Planning Act 1990.
- The development hereby permitted shall be carried out in accordance with the following approved plans: • Site Location and Block Plan Ref 1380-PL100. Reason For the avoidance of doubt and in the interests of proper planning.
- The scheme hereby approved shall not operate outside the hours of: • 07:00 - 19:00 Monday - Friday • 08:00 - 16:00 Saturday • No operations on Sundays and Bank Holidays. Reason To mitigate potential adverse impacts from noise on residential amenity in line with paragraphs 183-188 of the National Planning Policy Framework.
- The proposed development lies within a coal mining area which may contain unrecorded coal mining related hazards. If any coal mining feature is encountered during development, this should be reported immediately to the Coal Authority on 0345 762 6848. Further information is also available on the Coal Authority website at: www.gov.uk/government/organisations/the-coal-authority
- Biodiversity Net Gain The effect of paragraph 13 of Schedule 7A to the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 is that, subject to some exemptions, every grant of planning permission in England is deemed to have been granted subject to the biodiversity gain condition that development may not begin unless: (a) a Biodiversity Gain Plan has been submitted to the planning authority, and (b) the planning authority has approved the plan. This objective is for development to deliver at least a 10% increase in biodiversity value relative to the pre-development biodiversity value of the onsite habitat. This increase can be achieved through onsite biodiversity gains, registered offsite biodiversity gains or statutory biodiversity credits. There are statutory exemptions and transitional arrangements which mean that the biodiversity gain condition does not always apply. These can be found at Biodiversity net gain: exempt developments - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk). On the basis of the information provided to determine the application, it would be subject to the de minimus exemption. However, it is the responsibility of the applicant to confirm this and before commencing development, you should consider whether a Biodiversity Gain Plan needs to be submitted and approved. Commencing development which is subject to the biodiversity gain condition without an approved Biodiversity Gain Plan could result in enforcement action for breach of planning control.
