The approved document must be adhered to in full. Reason: To retain and protect the existing trees which form an important part of the amenity of the locality.
7. No construction or site preparation works involving excavation shall start until a Construction Environment Management Plan (CEMP) has been submitted to, and approved in writing by, the Local Planning Authority. Preparation and construction work shall only take place in accordance with the approved CEMP which shall include:a) the location of temporary site buildings, compounds, construction material and plant storage areas used during demolition and construction; b) the arrangements for deliveries associated with all construction works, loading/ unloading of plant & materials and restoration of any damage to the highway [including vehicle crossovers and grass verges]. c) the parking of vehicles of site operatives and visitors; d) measures to control the emission of dust and dirt generated by demolition and construction; e) a scheme for controlling noise and vibration from demolition and construction activities (to include piling); f) provision for storage, collection, and disposal of waste from the development during construction period; g) measures to prevent mud and dust on the highway during demolition and construction; h) the erection and maintenance of security hoarding including decorative displays and facilities for public viewing, where appropriate; i) temporary lighting; j) protection of pedestrian routes during construction; k) temporary surface water drainage provisions; and l) hours of working Reason: To limit the impact the development has on the amenity of the locality, in accordance with Policies DM1 and DM8 of the Eastleigh Borough Local Plan (2016- 2036).
8. Notwithstanding the presence of existing gates, any gates provided/retained shall be set back a distance of 6.0m from the edge of the carriageway of the adjoining highway. This shall occur prior to any development above ground floor slab level. Reason: In the interests of highway safety.
9. The first 6.0m from the edge of the carriageway of the adjoining highway shall be surfaced in non-migratory but permeable material prior to the occupation of the development hereby permitted. Reason: In the interests of highway safety
10. The development hereby permitted shall not be occupied until a mitigation package addressing the additional nutrient inputs arising from the development has been submitted to, and approved in writing by, the Local Planning Authority. Such a mitigation package shall address all of the additional nutrient loading upon protected European sites from the development and shall allow the Local Planning Authority to ascertain on the basis of the best available scientific evidence that such additional nutrient loading will not have an adverse effect on the integrity of those European Sites, having regard to the conservation objectives for they are designated. The mitigation package shall be implemented in full and evidence of this provided to the Local Planning Authority in writing prior to first occupation of the development. Reason: To mitigate the nutrient impacts arising from the development upon the European protected Solent Complex in accordance with the requirements of the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017.
11. The development hereby permitted shall not be commenced for a period of at least 21 days from the date of the decision. Reason: To comply with Section 28I(6) of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended) as this permission is being granted otherwise than in accordance with the advice of Natural England.
12. Note to Applicant 1 The site is within an area of maximum radon potential of 3-5%. Further consideration needs to be given to the radon risk. As general advice, all developers should: Consult the Radon UK map (UKradon - UK maps of radon) - if they're in an area above 1%, developers should buy the UK Health Agency Radon report (for approximately £4.00) and check their development. Details on the findings on radon risk should be submitted to the LPA. If this gives an answer that is greater than 1%, they should consider Radon protection for new developments. If the answer is greater than 3% then Radon protection will be needed according to Building Regulations, with basic protection required at 3-10% and full protection above 10%.
13. Note to Applicant - In accordance with paragraph 39 of the National Planning Policy Framework, Eastleigh Borough Council takes a positive approach to the handling of development proposals so as to achieve, whenever possible, a positive outcome and to ensure all proposals are dealt with in a timely manner.
14. Note to Applicant – Please note the following Ecological Notes - In the unlikely event of any bats being found during demolition or construction, all work must stop immediately, and Natural England must be informed. Additional information is available on the Bat Conservation Trust website at https://www.bats.org.uk/advice/im-working-on-a-building-with-bats/ive-found-a-bat-during-works. Any vegetation to be removed to facilitate the development must be removed outside of bird nesting season (which is usually between the beginning of March and the end of August). If this is not possible then vegetation can be cleared only after being checked for nesting birds by a suitably qualified ecologist up to 24 hours before the start of works. If any active nests are found, work must stop, and a 5 m buffer must be erected around the nest to protect it from disturbance until after the birds have fledged and left the nest. Any excavations or open pipes will need to be covered at night, or provided with a small animal escape ramp (a rough board at a shallow angle) to allow animals to escape if they fall in. If animals are found on site, they should not be handled but must be allowed to move away to safety on their own. If any protected species are found on site, work must stop immediately and advice sought from a licensed ecologist and Natural England. All building materials to be stored on hard standing or on pallets, as far as possible from hedgerows, scrub or potential habitat. No fires can be lit on site. Any compost heaps or piles of rubble, soil or brash must be dismantled by hand in case small animals are sheltering in them. This will allow animals time to escape. If protected species are found on site, work must stop immediately, and advice sought from a licensed ecologist and Natural England.
