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 approved shall be carried out in accordance with the following approved plans: • Sketch Proposals 2661-05 (Dated 27/11/24) Reason For the avoidance of doubt and in the interests of proper planning.
- Materials used for the external surfaces shall take place in accordance with the details hereby approved and shall be retained as such for the lifetime of the development. Reason In the interests of visual amenity and to ensure compliance with Local Plan Policies CP3, CP15, CP16 and the NPPF.
- Coal Authority 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
- The granting of planning permission does not constitute authority for any interference with the public right of way and associated items - or its obstruction (temporary or permanent). If this public right of way does need diverting as part of these proposals the developer must apply to Cannock Chase District Council under section 257 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 to divert the public rights to allow the development to commence. For further information the applicant must read section 7 of DEFRA’s Rights of Way Circular (1/09). Staffordshire County Council has not received any application to add to or modify the Definitive Map of Public Rights of Way in that vicinity. The possibility of the existence of a currently unrecognised public right of way, makes it advisable that the applicant pursue further enquiries and seek legal advice regarding any visible route affecting the land, or the apparent exercise of a right of way by members of the public.
