17. Reason for Approval The proposed development of housing at Grey Towers is considered to be appropriate for both the application site itself and within the surrounding area, in that the proposal is in accordance with national and local planning policy. The relevant policies and guidance is contained within the following documents: - National Planning Policy Framework 2012 - Middlesbrough Local Development Framework (LDF) - Core Strategy (2008); Regeneration DPD and Proposal Map (2009) - Middlesbrough Housing Local Plan, Housing Core Strategy and Housing Development Plan Document (2014). In particular, the proposal meets the national planning policy framework and guidance, in that the proposal is for a housing development that would not be out of scale and character within the surrounding area, and would not be detrimental to the local and residential amenities of the area. Issues of principle regarding development on an allocated site, the layout and design of the housing scheme and the generation of traffic, have been considered fully, including those set out in the representations made by nearby residents, and are not considered, on balance, to give rise to any inappropriate or undue affects. Accordingly, the Local Planning Authority considers that there are no material planning considerations that would override the general assumption that development be approved unless other material factors determine otherwise.
18. Discharge of Condition Fee Under the Town & Country Planning (Fees for Applications and Deemed Applications)(Amendment)(England) Regulations 2018, the Council must charge a fee for the discharge of conditions. Information relating to current fees is available on the Planning Portal website https://1app.planningportal.co.uk/FeeCalculator/Standalone?region=1. Please be aware that where there is more than one condition multiple fees will be required if you apply to discharge them separately.
19. Civil Ownership Matters This permission refers only to that required under the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended) and does not include any other consent or approval under any enactments, byelaw, order or regulation. The grant of planning permission does not override any third party rights which may exist over the application site. In addition, you are advised that any works affecting party walls or involving excavations for foundations adjacent to a party wall you will be required to serve notice on all adjoining owners before work commences and adhere to the requirements of the Party Wall Act 1996.
20. 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.
21. Building Regulations Compliance with Building Regulations will be required. Before commencing works it is recommended that discussions take place with the Building Control section of this Council.

23. Name and Numbering Should the development require Street Names, Numbers and/or Post Codes the developer must contact the Councils Naming and Numbering representative on 01642 728155.
24. Deliveries to Site It should be ensured that, during construction, deliveries to the site do not obstruct the highway.

25. Cleaning of Highway The applicant is reminded that it is the responsibility of anybody carrying out building work to ensure that mud, debris or other deleterious material is not deposited from the site onto the highway and, if it is, it shall be cleared by that person.
