| Condition Details / Information Notes |
| 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 – LP01 Rev A issue 5, SP 01 Rev A Issue 5, PP01, PP04, PP05 Issue 5. Reason: To define the permission. |
| The development hereby permitted shall be carried out in strict accordance with the following mitigation, compensation and enhancement recommendations: 3, 19, 22, 24- 29 pages 11-14 of the protected species report by Elizabeth McKay and dated October 2025, unless otherwise approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority, or varied by a bat licence subsequently issued by Natural England. Reason – To ensure that the proposed development contributes to the conservation and enhancement of biodiversity within the site and for the wider area in accordance with policy SWDP22 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan and to ensure compliance with the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended) and the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations (2017). |
| Before the development hereby permitted is first occupied/used, details of any external lighting to be provided in association with the development shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The lighting shall conform to a "lighting design strategy for biodiversity". The strategy shall be based on Guidance Note 08/23 Bats and Artificial Lighting at Night, by the Bat Conservation Trust and ILP, and shall include the following: a. Identification of the areas/features on site that are particularly sensitive for bats and that are likely to cause disturbance in or around their breeding sites and resting places, or along important routes used to access key areas of their territory, for example, for foraging. This will include the provision of dark corridor conditions (LUX levels at or below 0.4 in the vertical plane and 0.2 LUX in the horizontal plane) for all roost sites, woodland edges, trees with roosting potential, hedgerows and other biodiversity features and; b. Show how and where external lighting will be installed (through the provision of appropriate lighting contour plans and technical specifications) so that it can be clearly demonstrated that areas to be lit will not disturb or prevent bats using their territory or having access to their breeding sites and resting places. All external lighting shall be installed in accordance with the specifications and locations set out in the strategy, and these shall be maintained thereafter in accordance with the strategy. Under no circumstances should any other external lighting be installed without prior consent from the local planning authority. 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. |
| On completion of the works, the development shall be inspected by a qualified ecologist and a statement of conformity and a copy of any bat licences and licence monitoring returns as appropriate shall be submitted to the Local Planning Authority to confirm the mitigation and enhancement measures for biodiversity have been successfully implemented in accordance with the details approved under this condition. Reason – To ensure that the proposed development contributes to the conservation and enhancement of biodiversity within the site and for the wider area in accordance with policy SWDP22 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan and to ensure compliance with the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended) and the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations (2017). |
