| A bat box shall be installed within the land ownership of the site (e.g. Ibstock enclosed bat box, Habibat bat box, Schwegler Wall-mounted Bat Shelter 2FE, Schwegler 2F Bat Box). The box should be installed at least 4m above ground-level, and not placed above windows. The roosting feature shall be installed within 3 months from the date of this decision. Reason: To ensure the development contributes to the conservation and enhancement of biodiversity within the site and the wider area in accordance with policy SWDP22 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan |
| Prior to first use of the development, the details set out in the submitted Water Management Statement shall be fully implemented and remain thereafter. Reason: To ensure that an appropriate sustainable drainage system is provided to serve the development in accordance with policy SWDP29 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan 2016. |
| Positive and Proactive Statement. No problems have arisen in dealing with this application. The planning application sought an acceptable form of development consistent with the requirements of relevant policies and material considerations. No amendments or alterations were therefore required and no further positive or proactive action was deemed necessary. |
| Where possible, the definitive line of public rights of way should be kept open and available throughout the construction phase. However, if Public Safety demands a temporary closure, applications should be made at least 8 weeks in advance to: The Public Rights of Way Mapping Team at prowclosures@worcestershire.gov.uk. • No disturbance of, or change to, the surface of the path or part thereof should be carried out without our written consent. No diminution in the width of the right of way available for use by the public. Building materials must not be stored on the right of way. • Vehicle movements and parking to be arranged so vehicles do not unreasonably interfere with the public’s use of the right of way. • No additional barriers are placed across the right of way. No stile, gate, fence or other structure should be created on, or across, a public right of way without written consent of the Highway Authority. • The safety of the public using the right of way is to be ensured at all times. • The National Planning Policy Framework by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government, particularly paragraph 104, states that planning policies protect and enhance public rights of way and access. • The developer should also be aware of the Department of Environment Circular 1/09 (part 7) which explains that the effect of development on a public right of way is a material consideration in the determination of applications for planning permission and that the grant of planning consent does not entitle developers to obstruct a public right of way. • The Definitive Map is a minimum record of public rights of way and does not preclude the possibility that unrecorded public rights may exist, nor that higher rights may exist than those shown. |
| All species of bats and their roosts (whether the bats are present or not) are protected from reckless killing, disturbance or destruction under both national and European legislation. Cracks, cavities and holes in trees and buildings can provide suitable places for bats to rest or hibernate; these should be carefully inspected prior to carrying out any works. If bats are discovered during work on trees or are suspected of being present, the relevant work should be halted and Natural England (formerly English Nature) notified and further advice sought (http://www.naturalengland.org.uk/). For more information about bats and the law, please go to the Bat Conservation Trust website: http://www.bats.org.uk/ For information on surveying for bats in trees and woodland please have a look at the following guide: https://cdn.bats.org.uk/uploads/pdf/BSI-Bat-Microguide-UK-EN.pdf?v=1549304693 |
