3. The materials to be used must match as closely as possible, in type, colour and texture those listed in the 'Materials' section of the application form and the approved drawing numbered ‘EM01-101-1st’. Reason: To ensure a satisfactory visual relationship of the new development to the existing.
4. The development hereby permitted shall only be used in conjunction with and for purposes incidental to the enjoyment of the main dwellinghouse.

Reason: The site is not considered suitable for sub-division into two separate dwellings and in the interest of the character of the locality.
5. Note to Applicant: 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.
6. Note to Applicant: A precautionary working method must be used to prevent harm to wildlife such as hedgehogs that could be using this site. It should include: All building materials shall be stored on hard standing or on pallets, as far as possible from hedgerows, scrub or potential habitat.Any excavations must be covered at night or be fitted with a small animal escape ramp.No fires can be lit on site.Waste must be stored in a skip and not be allowed to accumulate in piles which could be used by wildlife.Any chemicals and fuels must be stored carefully and away from potential wildlife habitat.Any animals found on site should not be handled but be allowed to move away to a place of safety on their own.
7. Note to Applicant: Biodiversity enhancements are recommended in the form of night scented flowering plants and plants for pollinators on site, and a bird box on the new building or elsewhere in the garden to replace the bird box on the existing outbuilding.
8. Note to Applicant: In accordance with paragraph 39 of the National Planning Policy Framework (December 2024), 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.
