Once installed the window shall be permanently maintained in that condition. Reason: To protect the amenity and privacy of the adjoining residential properties.
5. The recommendations and enhancements (sections 6 and 7) set out within the PEA and Phase II Bat Surveys report by South Coast Ecology (ref 29/06/2026 FINAL) as submitted shall be followed in full. Reason: To ensure protected species are not harmed during construction and a biodiversity enhancement is provided, in accordance with policy DM11 of the Eastleigh Borough Local Plan (2016-2036)
6. Note to Applicant: In the event of any bats being found during demolition or construction, all work must stop immediately, and Natural England must be informed. New exterior lighting should be avoided, but if necessary for security purposes, then the latest updated lighting guidance note (GN08/23) should be followed. If works to tie the new extension into the existing roof or any clearance of vegetation take place within nesting bird season (i.e. between March – September) a nesting bird check will be undertaken prior to works to confirm the identified nest is no longer active. If a nest is found a 5m buffer will be established within which works will not be able to take place until an ecologist has confirmed that the chicks have fledged and the nest is no longer active.
7. 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.
