Single storey rear extension, roof alterations with rear dormer

1. The development hereby permitted shall be implemented in accordance with the following plans numbered: 23045/002P Rev F Reason: For the avoidance of doubt and in the interests of proper planning.
2. The development hereby permitted shall start no later than three years from the date of this decision. Reason: To comply with Section 91 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990.
3. The materials to be used in the construction of the external surfaces of the development hereby permitted shall match in type, colour and texture those used on the existing building. Reason: To ensure a satisfactory visual relationship between the new development and the existing.
4. No development shall start until a precautionary working method including a pre-works inspection survey has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The development shall be carried out in accordance with the approved details. Reason: To protect the presence of potential bat roost features.
5. The development hereby permitted shall be implemented in accordance with the recommendations outlined in the Bat Survey and Mitigation Report by Aluco Ecology Ltd (May 2024) Reason: To protect and enhance biodiversity.
6. Prior to the commencement of development, the developer must advise the local authority, in consultation with Southern Water, of measures which will be undertaken to protect the public sewers. Reason: To protect drainage apparatus.
7. Note to Applicant: In the unlikely event of any bats being found during demolition or construction, all work must stop immediately, and Natural England must be called. 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-work
8. Note to Applicant: Any vegetation affected by the proposal must be cleared outside of nesting bird season (which is usually March-August inclusive). If this is not possible, a suitably qualified ecologist must check for nesting birds no more than 24 hours before vegetation clearance. If evidence of an active bird’s nest is found during construction, a 5 m buffer must be erected around the nest to protect it from disturbance until after the chicks have fledged and left the nest.
9. Note to Applicant: A bird nest box will be mounted in a suitable location directed by the ecological consultant as an additional biodiversity enhancement.
10. Note to Applicant: Where Public Rights of Way are close to application sites or are used for access to the development site, they must be shown on the submitted plans with details of how they will be accommodated within the proposals. Government guidance requires that applications should not be validated unless such information has been submitted.
11. Note to Applicant: Nothing connected with the development, or its future use, shall have an adverse effect on the Public Rights of Way, which must always remain available for safe public use at all times.
12. Note to Applicant: No vehicles (including builder’s and contractor’s), machinery, equipment, materials, spoil, scaffolding, or anything else associated with the works, use, or occupation of the development, shall be left on or near to a Public Right of Way as to cause obstruction, hindrance, or a hazard to the legitimate users. The public retain the right to use the PROW at all times.
13. Note to Applicant: The grant of planning permission does not entitle developers to obstruct a public right of way. The diversion or stopping up of footpaths, bridleways and restricted byways is a separate process, which must be carried out before the paths are affected by the development. It cannot be assumed that because planning permission has been granted that an Order under section 257 of the TCPA (1990) will invariably be made or confirmed. Development, in so far as it affects a PROW, must not be started and the PROW should be kept open for public use, unless or until the necessary order has come into effect.
14. Note to Applicant: All vehicles that would be legitimately accessing the site via a Public Right of Way should give way to public users, which could include horse-riders and cyclists, at all times. In cases with legitimate vehicular access a Construction Traffic Management Plan (CTMP) should be submitted to, and approved by, Hampshire Countryside Service as Highways Authority prior to any approval by the Planning Authority, and prior to commencement, to ensure the protection of public safety.
15. Note to Applicant: There must be no surface alterations to a Public Right of Way without the consent of Hampshire County Council as Highways Authority. Planning permission under the Town and County Planning Act (1990) does not provide this and separate consent is required. To carry out any such works without this permission would constitute an offence under Section 131 of the Highways Act (1980).
16. Note to Applicant: No works to the surface of the Public Right of Way shall be carried out without prior approval of the HCS Area Countryside Access Manager. Any damage caused to the surface of the Public Right of Way by construction traffic will be required to be restored to the satisfaction of the Area Countryside Access Manager on the completion of the build.
17. Note to Applicant: It is requested that the building works are carried out considerately to minimise disruption to the occupiers of the neighbouring properties. 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'.
18. Note to Applicant: In accordance with paragraph 38 of the National Planning Policy Framework (September 2023), 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.
