DECISION NOTICEPlanning conditions
- The permission hereby granted for display of the proposed advertisement(s) shall expire five years from the date of this notice. Reason: As is required by part 3 (para 16(2)c) of the Town & Country Planning (Control of Advertisements) Regulations 2007.
- The development hereby approved shall be carried out in complete accordance with the plans and specifications below and shall relate to no other plans. a. Location plan received 11th November 2021 b. Signage details received 21st October 2021 Reason: To ensure a satisfactory form of development and for the avoidance of doubt.
- The advertisements hereby approved must adhere to the statutory requirements detailed below: a) Any advertisement displayed and any site used for the display of advertisements shall be retained in a clean and tidy condition which does not impair visual amenity, cause danger, nuisance or hazard to the public to the reasonable satisfaction of the Local Planning Authority; b) Any structure or hoarding erected or used principally for the purpose of displaying advertisements shall be maintained in a safe condition that does not endanger the public; c) Where an advertisement is required under these Regulations to be removed, the site shall be left in a safe condition that does not cause danger, nuisance or hazard to the public or impair visual amenity to the reasonable satisfaction of the Local Planning Authority; d) No advertisement shall be displayed without the permission of the owner of the site or any other person with an interest in the site entitled to grant permission; and, e) No advertisement shall be sited or displayed so as to obscure or hinder the ready interpretation of any road traffic sign, railway signal or aid to navigation by water or air, or so as otherwise to render hazardous the use of any highway, railway, waterway or aerodrome (civil or military). Nor shall any advertisement hinder the operation of any device used for the purpose of security or surveillance or for measuring the speed of any vehicle. Reason: To comply with Regulation 14(1) and Schedule 2 of the Town and Country Planning (Control of Advertisement)(England) Regulations 2007 and section 12 of the NPPF.
- The application is satisfactory in that the design and appearance of the proposed signage accords with the principles of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) and, where appropriate, the Council has worked with the applicant in a positive and proactive way in line with paragraphs 186-187 of the NPPF. In addition the signage accords with the local policy requirements (Policy CS5 & DC1 of the Council's Local Development Framework). In particular the proposed signage is designed so that its appearance is complementary to the premises and will not have a detrimental impact on the appearance of the street scene or any adjoining residents. The proposed signage will not prejudice highway safety either by obscuring visibility or be of a conspicuous or prominent appearance. The application is therefore considered to be acceptable, fully in accordance with the relevant policy guidance and there are no material considerations which indicate that the application should be refused.
