Single storey rear and side extensions following the demolition of the existing decking and outbuilding. New roof with roof lights. Alterations to fenestration.

1. The development hereby permitted shall be implemented in accordance with the following plans numbered: 1398/P00, 1398/P01, 1398/P02, 1398/P03, 1398/P04, and 1398/P05. 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 or otherwise be in accordance with those in the Application Form. Reason: To ensure a satisfactory visual relationship between the new development and the existing.
4. No development shall start until a precautionary working method for hedgehogs 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 and enhance biodiversity.
5. Note to Applicant: It is recommended to add a bat brick and a swift brick to the building or to create a hedgehog habitat area in the garden as biodiversity enhancements.
6. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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). 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.
7. 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'.
8. Note to Applicant: In accordance with paragraph 38 of the National Planning Policy Framework (December 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.
