- The development shall be carried out in accordance with the following approved plans and documents: • P01 - Proposed Site and Location Plan received 19/11/2025 • P02 - Proposed Floor Plan, Roof Plans & 3D Visuals received 19/11/2025 • P03 - Proposed Elevations received 19/11/2025 • Green infrastructure statement received 19/11/2025 • Bat Potential Roosting Feature Assessment (Kite Ecology report dated September 2025) received 19/11/2025 Reason: In order to be clear on the approved scheme of development in the interests of protecting visual amenity and the special qualities of the National Park. Policy: Local Development Plan 2 – Policies 1 (National Park Purposes and Duty), 8 (Special Qualities), 14 (Conservation of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park) and 29 (Sustainable Design).
- In the first available planting seasons following approval, planting must be implemented according to the Green Infrastructure Statement and Plan reference P01. The species chosen should be from the Authority's Native Trees list ( 23 June 2000). Any existing plants retained; or new plants planted in accordance with the approved scheme which, within a period of 5 years after implementation of the approved development are removed, die, become diseased or damaged to such extent that, in the opinion of the Local Planning Authority, the function in relation to this planning approval is no longer delivered, shall be replaced with plants of similar size and specification. Any variations to the details of the documents and plans must only be undertaken after the proposed variations have been agreed in writing by the LPA. Reason: To prevent detrimental impact to trees, hedges and other landscape features which contribute to the amenity, landscape & biodiversity of the site and surrounding area. Local Development Plan 2 - Policies: 1 (National Park Purposes and Duty), 8 (Special Qualities), 14 (Conservation and enhancement of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park), 30 (Amenity), SPG 12 - Biodiversity, Technical Advice Note (TAN) 5: Nature Conservation and Planning (2009), Technical Advice Note (TAN) 10: Tree Preservation Orders (1997).
- The bat box shown on the rear elevation (P03) shall be installed in full adherence to the details submitted to this authority within 6 months of the other works hereby approved being completed and retained/maintained thereafter. Reason: To prevent detrimental impact to trees, hedges and other landscape features which contribute to the amenity, landscape & biodiversity of the site and surrounding area. Local Development Plan 2 - Policies: 1 (National Park Purposes and Duty), 8 (Special Qualities), 14 (Conservation and enhancement of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park), 30 (Amenity), SPG 12 - Biodiversity, Technical Advice Note (TAN) 5: Nature Conservation and Planning (2009), Technical Advice Note (TAN) 10: Tree Preservation Orders (1997).
- Prior to the erection of any additional external lighting on the approved site a light mitigation strategy, including measures to reduce light spillage onto foraging habitats for bats shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the local planning authority. The development shall be carried out in accordance with the approved details. Reason: To ensure that animal and plant species and habitats listed under the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2010 are adequately protected, and to protect and enhance the character and appearance of the site and its setting within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. Policy: Local Development Plan 2 - Policies 1 (National Park Purposes and Duty), 8 (Special Qualities), 12 (Local Areas of Nature Conservation or Sites of Geological Interest) and 14 (Conservation of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park).
- The temporary cold stores located to the rear of the property shall be removed from the site within 3 months of the completion of the extension hereby approved. Reason: In order to protect the amenity of neighbouring occupiers in terms of noise from compressors being run and in accord with Policy 30 of the Local Development Plan.
- INFORMATIVES: ECOLOGY: It is recommended that the applicant be informed that all British bat species are European Protected Species by virtue of their listing under Annex IV of EC Directive 92/43/EEC (‘The Habitats Directive’). This Directive has been transposed into British Law under the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017. British bats are also protected under Schedule 5 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act (1981) (as amended). It is a criminal offence to intentionally, or recklessly disturb, harm, or kill bats or to destroy a bat 'roost', even if only occasionally used. If bats are encountered on site works should stop immediately an NRW should be contacted (Natural Resources Wales, - General Enquiries: enquiries@naturalresourceswales.gov.uk or 0300 065 3000 Mon-Fri, 8am - 6pm) a licence may then need to be applied for from NRW. Licences are not automatically granted by virtue of a valid planning consent, and it may be possible that the necessary licence application may be refused. UNAUTHORISED ADVERTISEMENTS: No signage has been approved to date for the premises. As such the banner attached to the frontage of the building and freestanding signs should be removed to avoid potential enforcement action. Pre-application discussions on appropriate signage would be encouraged.
