| Condition Details / Information Notes |
| The development hereby permitted must be commenced not later than the expiration of three years from the date of the original permission 20/01047/FUL dated 29/07/2020. Reason: To conform with the requirements of Sections 73 and 91 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended). |
| 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 – - 116-2-20b - 116-2-21a - 116-2-22a - 116-2-23a - 116-2-24a - Water Management Statement Reason: To define the permission. |

The colour finish specified above shall be applied prior to first occupation of each dwelling, and shall be retained thereafter unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Local Planning Authority.

| The Development hereby approved shall not be brought into use until the access, turning area and parking facilities shown on Drawing Ref: 116-2-20b Revised Proposed: Site Plan has been provided. These areas shall thereafter be retained and kept available for their respective approved uses at all times. Reason: In the interests of highway safety and to ensure the free flow of traffic using the adjoining highway in accordance with Policy SWDP21 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan. |
| Unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Local Planning Authority foul drainage from the site shall be disposed of in accordance with the details set out in the Water Management Statement July 2020.

There shall be no such work on Sundays or Public Holidays. Reason: To protect the residential amenities of the area in accordance with Policy SWDP21 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan. |
| Positive and Proactive Statement. In dealing with this application, the Council has worked with the applicant by seeking further information following receipt of the application. In such ways the Council has demonstrated a positive and proactive manner in seeking solutions to problems arising in relation to the planning application. |
| Part of Malvern Wells Parish footpath MW-552 shares an entry/exit point with the principal vehicular access route for the development site. It should be noted that, under section 34 of the Road Traffic Act 1988, any person who, without lawful authority, drives a motor vehicle on a public right of way commits an offence. The applicant should make themselves satisfied that they, and anyone else who may use public rights of way for private vehicular access in connection with the development, has a right to do so. They may wish to seek legal advice on the matter. The County Council is responsible for maintaining rights of way to a standard suitable for their usual public use. We have no objection to the proposals provided that the applicant notes the above and adheres to the following obligations: - The Public safety of those using the right of way must be ensured at all times. - There must be no disturbance of, or change to, the surface of the paths or part thereof without our written consent. - There must be no diminution in the width of the rights of way available for use by the public. - Buildings materials must not be stored on the rights of way. - Vehicle movements and parking are to be arranged so as not to unreasonably interfere with the public’s use of the rights of way. - No additional barriers are to be placed across the rights 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 applicant should note the National Planning Policy Framework published in July 2018 by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government, particularly paragraph 98, to ensure 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. WCC would recommend that Public Rights of Way (PROWs), potentially affected by planned works, are clearly designated on all associated planning maps, diagrams or schematics as a matter of course. 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. |
