5. Note to Applicant: This application has been flagged up as being within 50 m of a record of great crested newts. There is more suitable habitat closer to the pond so it is not likely that they will be found on this property, however the following precautions should be taken during construction. The grass in this area should be kept mowed short, and should be checked for the presence of any newts or other small animals before the start of works. Any piles of vegetation or rubble should be cleared by hand making sure that no animals are present before digging. If any newts or other amphibians are found, they should not be handled but be allowed to move away from the area on their own.
6. Note to Applicant: It is agreed to use a 1600L rainwater harvesting system to prevent on site and off site surface water flooding.
7. Note to Applicant: It is recommended to add a bird box or sparrow terrace to the gable end of the building or on the end without the door as a biodiversity enhancement.
8. Note to Applicant: It is possible that a sewer now deemed to be public could be crossing the development site. Therefore, should any sewer be found during construction works, an investigation of the sewer will be required to ascertain its ownership before any further works commence on site. Southern Water requires a formal application for any new connection to the public foul sewer to be made by the applicant or developer. To make an application visit Southern Water's Get Connected service: developerservices.southernwater.co.uk and please read the New Connections Charging Arrangements documents which are available on the website via the following link: southernwater.co.uk/developing-building/connection-charging-arrangements

The council operates a code of best practice, which is available on the council's website www.eastleigh.gov.uk by following the links to Planning and Building, Building Control, then select 'Considerate Builders Advice Note'.
10. Note to Applicant: In accordance with paragraph 38 of the National Planning Policy Framework (February 2019), 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.
