4. REASON FOR APPROVAL This application is satisfactory in that the design of the proposed extensions and alterations accords with the principles of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) and the local policy requirements (Policies CS5 & DC1 of the Council's Local Development Framework). In particular the extension and staircase alteration is designed so that its appearance is complementary to the existing building and will not have a detrimental impact on the amenity of any adjoining or nearby residents/businesses. The extension and staircase alteration will not prejudice the character and appearance of the area and will not significantly affect any landscaping nor prevent adequate and safe access to the site. The application is therefore considered to be an acceptable form of development, fully in accordance with the relevant policy guidance and there are no material considerations which would indicate that the development should be refused.
5. • Rights of Access/Encroachment This planning approval does not permit any person to access another person's land/property to enable the works to be completed, without their consent. Any encroachment into another person's land/property above or below ground is a civil matter to be resolved between the relevant parties.
6. Deliveries to site It should be ensured that, during construction, deliveries to the site do not obstruct the highway. If deliveries are to be made which may cause an obstruction, then early discussion should be had with the Highway Authority on the timing of these deliveries and measures that may be required so as to mitigate the effect of the obstruction to the general public
7. Building materials on highway The applicant is reminded that building materials shall not be deposited on the highway without the specific consent of the Highway Authority.
