| Condition Details / Information Notes |
| The development hereby permitted shall be begun before the expiration of three years from the date of this permission. Reason: To conform with the requirements of Section 91 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 as amended by Section 51 of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004. |
| Unless where required or allowed by other conditions attached to this permission/consent, the development hereby approved shall be carried out in accordance with the information (including details on the proposed materials) provided on the application form and the following plans/drawings/documents – Existing Location & Block Plan Drw No: 747/001 Rev: A Proposed Floor Plan Drw No: 747/3001 Rev: C Proposed Site Plan Drw No: 747/3002 Rev: A Proposed Elevations 1 Drw No: 747/3003 Rev: B Proposed Elevations 2 Drw No: 747/3004 Rev: A Reason: To define the permission. |
| Prior to the first use/occupation of the development hereby permitted, 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. |
| The development hereby permitted shall be carried out in strict accordance with the recommendations set out in the Preliminary Bat Roost Appraisal report carried out by Breakwell Ecology dated 9 May 2025 and submitted with this application. In particular: -The works are to be carried out under a Precautionary Working Method Statement for bats, which will detail working methods to avoid any potential impacts on bats, including appointing an Ecological Clerk of Works to carry out a ‘tool-box talk’ with contractors, supervision of works to the roof and soffits, which will be conducted under a ‘soft demolition’ protocol, and carrying out the works at a time when bats are most likely to be absent. - Two bat boxes, two bird boxes, two invertebrate boxes and one hedgehog house are to be installed in suitable areas within the curtilage of the site. 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 the first use/occupation of the development hereby permitted the two windows to the Proposed East Elevation each serving a bathroom shall be fitted with Pilkington Level 4 obscured glazing or equivalent and shall be permanently retained in that condition thereafter. Reason - To protect the amenities of adjoining/nearby properties from unacceptable overlooking/loss of privacy and represent quality design in accordance with policy SWDP21 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan. |
| Buildings, and particularly roofs and the spaces underneath them, are frequently used as roosting sites by bats. Bats and their 'roost' sites are protected under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended) and the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017, the latter of which deems them a European Protected Species. It is a criminal offence to deliberately kill or injure a bat, to disturb or destroy a bat roost or to obstruct an entrance to a roost. If evidence of bats is found, work should stop immediately and an ecological consultant contacted for advice on the best way to proceed. All contractors working on site should be made aware of the advice and provided with the contact details of a relevant ecological consultant. |
| 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. |
