Demolition and construction work shall only take place in accordance with the approved CEMP. Reason - In order that the Planning Authority can properly consider the effect of the works on the amenity of the locality, in accordance with Policies DM1 and DM8 of the Eastleigh Borough Local Plan (2016-2036).
4. The development hereby approved shall be carried out in accordance with the recommendations and specifications set out in the Noise Impact Assessment prepared by DAA Group, dated 25th November 2024 (Issue 01), and the noise mitigation measures shall thereafter be retained. Reason: To ensure that future occupants are not adversely impacted by noise, in accordance with Policy DM8 of the Eastleigh Borough Local Plan (2016-2036).
5. Prior to commencement of the development hereby permitted, full details of the type and colour of tiles to be used for the mansard roof extension shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The roof extension shall thereafter be constructed in accordance with the approved details. Reason: In the interest of visual amenity, in accordance with Policy DM1 of the Eastleigh Borough Local Plan (2016-2036).
6. Prior to occupation of the development hereby permitted, the 5 parking spaces shown on approved plan ref. 23.1371/701 Rev. A shall be provided and maintained thereafter for residential parking only. Reason: To ensure adequate parking provision to serve the residential use, and to prevent conflicts with commercial parking, in accordance with Policy DM14 of the Eastleigh Borough Local Plan (2016-2036).
7. Prior to occupation of the development hereby approved, cycle and refuse storage facilities shall be provided in accordance with the approved plans and thereafter retained for cycle and refuse storage purposes only. Reason: In the interest of amenity and to encourage the use of alternative means of transport to the private car, in accordance with Policies DM1 and DM13 of the Eastleigh Borough Local Plan (2016-2036).
8. Note to Applicant: If works are required within the nesting season (March to August inclusive) then a nesting bird survey should be undertaken by a suitably qualified ecologist no more than 48 hours in advance. If evidence of an active bird’s nest is found during construction, work must stop, and a 5m 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: 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 I've found a bat during works - I'm working on a building with bats - Bat Conservation Trust. Swift nest boxes would be an appropriate biodiversity enhancement as there are records of swifts very close to this site.
10. Note to Applicant: It is a requirement that the applicant satisfies their obligations under Regulation 77 of the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017 (as amended), in strict accordance with Article 3(1) of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 2015 (as amended). Failure to comply with this will mean that the development will have been unlawfully implemented. In this instance appropriate mitigation is required to offset the development's impacts on the European Protected Site, in terms of additional recreational pressure (to the New Forest), and additional output of nutrients (nitrates and phosphates) arising from a net gain of residential accommodation. Development must not commence until the Local Planning Authority has given its written approval for the development and appropriate mitigation has been secured against the developments harmful impacts on the European Protected Site(s). Further information on Eastleigh Borough Council’s Schemes are available: Nitrates & Phosphates: https://www.eastleigh.gov.uk/planning-and-building/nutrient-offset-schemes#:~:text=The%20Council's%20nitrate%20offer,our%20legal%20and%20administrative%20costs.

11. Note to Applicant: The developer must notify the LPA of the completion of the development as soon as reasonably practicable after completion.
12. Note to applicant: Given the nature of the proposed development it is possible that a crane may be required during its construction. We would, therefore, draw the applicant’s attention to the requirement within CAP 1096 Airport Guidance to crane users on the crane notification process and obstacle lighting and marking.
