Decision & conditions
Decision NoticePlanning conditions
- Time Limit The development to which this permission relates must be begun not later than the expiration of three years beginning with the date on which this permission is granted. Reason: In order to comply with the requirements of Section 91 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended).
- Approved Plans The development hereby approved shall be carried out in complete accordance with the plans and specifications detailed below and shall relate to no other plans: a. Location plan received 17th April 2025 b. Site plan received 17th April 2025 c. Proposed elevations received 17th April 2025 d. Proposed roof plan received 17th April 2025 Reason: For the avoidance of doubt and to ensure that the development is carried out as approved.
- Materials - Matching The materials to be used in the construction of the external surfaces (including walls, roof & windows) of the development hereby permitted shall match those used in the existing building, or shall be in accordance with details which have first been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. Thereafter the development shall be carried out in accordance with the approved details. Reason: To ensure the use of appropriate materials in the interests of the visual amenities of the area having regard for policies DC1, CS4 and CS5 of the Local Plan and section 12 of the NPPF.
- REASON FOR APPROVAL The application is satisfactory in that the design and appearance of the proposed roof alterations accord with the principles of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF). In addition the roof alterations accord with the local policy requirements (Policy CS5 & DC1 of the Council's Local Development Framework). In particular the alterations are designed so that their appearance is complementary to the premises and will not have a detrimental impact on the appearance of the street scene or any nearby residents. The proposed alterations 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.
- 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
- 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.
