The lighting scheme shall be retained thereafter in accordance with the approved details. No additional lighting shall be installed unless expressly permitted in writing by the Local Planning Authority.

The consultee recommended that the LPA require the Applicant to submit a justifiable statement to confirm the scheme complies with the required lighting levels for zone E3 as detailed within Lighting Professionals document 'Guidance Note 01:21, The Reduction of Obtrusive Light'. The consultee also recommended that the Applicant be required to confirm that light fitting Lynx Pro will only be installed so that the lighting fixture faces down and is not fitted with the light fitting facing out where it will be visible to the public or other residents. Further information was submitted including a statement of compliance and confirmation that Light fitting Lynx Pro will only be installed so that the lighting fixture faces downwards and will not face any direction that will be visible to the public or residential properties. Officers consider the lighting scheme and confirmation of the above acceptable in line with LP17 of the Peterborough Local Plan (2019) and Section 12 of the National Planning Policy Framework (2024)(2025 as amended). The Wildlife Officer was consulted on this application and provided no objection.
